	Author	Review
United States	Lisa Schwarzbaum Entertainment Weekly	"Shifts unsteadily between slow-moving, gauzy focus romance and 'transgressive' gross-out comedy"	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"There's a lot of crazy energy and debonair disregard for the rules of liberal good taste; but when the laughs fall away and the comedy-nous falters, these things get very wearing indeed."	NEU
United States	Todd McCarthy Variety	"Funny as much of the action is, however, the approach feels rather less fresh, and the gross-outs seem more gratuitous"	NEU
United States	A. O. Scott The New York Times	"The humor in 'Me, Myself and Irene' is often outrageous but rarely cruel (...) [The filmmakers] commit acts of flagrant bad taste in the service of decency."	POS
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"An impenetrable plot and characters who keep repeating the same schtick, hoping maybe this time it will work (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"There won’t be a funnier movie about freaks, geeks and fatherhood this summer."	POS
United States	Glen Oliver IGN	"Laboriously awkward and remarkably flat (...) Seeing 'Me, Myself, and Irene' is much like eating a marginal meal at a second-rate restaurant"	NEG
United Kingdom	Caroline Westbrook Empire	"In their efforts to revolt the audience as far as possible, the brothers have forgotten that it takes more than simple outrageousness to make a film of this sort work (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times	"The Farrelly brothers have been dumb and they've been dumber, and Me, Myself & Irene definitely falls into the second category"	NEG
