Wholly unsuitable for children, yet propelled by a nagging puerility that will appeal only to those in the vortex of puberty, or to adults who have failed to progress beyond it.
Anthony Lane, New Yorker
Fresh
There are lots of moments in this movie that are genuinely funny.
Ben Lyons, At the Movies
Rotten
It's certainly not that there aren't a few funny moments in the film. There are, but overwhelmingly, Bruno's stunts are demeaning, they are insulting and they are really cruel.
Ben Mankiewicz, At the Movies
Fresh
a hit-and-miss brand of humor, as likely to leave you squirming from embarrassment as howling with laughter.
