United States | Rolling Stone | "DeVito triumphs by instilling this caustic satire with truth and consequence." | POS |
United States | Chicago Sun-Times | "It's to the credit of DeVito and his co-stars they they were willing to go that far, but maybe it shows more courage than wisdom (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" | POS |
United States | The Washington Post | "The most brutal husband-wife encounter since axe-wielding Jack Nicholson yelled "Heeeeere's Johnny!" to Shelley Duvall in Stanley Kubrick's 'The Shining'" | POS |
United States | Den of Geek | "The film is sharply witty and well-played by all, but it delivers a disturbing message" | NEU |
United States | The New York Times | "The film's tone may be slightly shaky at times, but when its humor works, it's very funny indeed" | POS |
United States | Variety | "What keeps it fresh are the sexually charged performances of the two attractive leads and the sarcastic twists DeVito and scripter Michael Leeson pull from the material." | POS |
