Reviews

Los Angeles Times -
An outrageous and imaginative summer comedy.
|
|
The New York Times -
Transcendently dumb but very funny comedy.
|
|
Washington Post -
Genial rather than an affront to good taste. It's also pretty darn funny.
|
|
USA Today -
Schneider, with his cherub curls and scrawny physique, adopts a pussycat persona that engenders goodwill.
|
|
Salon -
If The Animal -- co-written by Schneider and Tom Brady -- never quite gets fired up, at least it chugs along efficiently on its mildly inspired ridiculousness.
