Rotten
It's an amiable but slow slice of nostalgia: think 'Hot Tub Time Machine' meets 'Superbad' - without the big laughs.
Anna Smith, Time Out

Top critics, in their words
Rotten
This low-powered, amiable, stunningly unimportant movie is essentially one long, noisy party (set in two houses).

"Take Me Home Tonight" is not a bad movie. In fact, it's pretty good. It's just unnecessary.
Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic
Rotten
It's formulaic at best - and even that formula isn't always thought through.
Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
Rotten
Drinking jokes. Sex jokes. Wild antics. Sincere looks. Nothing goes on here that hasn't gone on -- and gone on better -- in other movies.
Tom Long, Detroit News
