Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Charming despite requisite training sequences and a cartoonishly evil opponent.
– Michael Esposito,
Chicago Tribune,
18 Oct 2008
fresh:
Ping Pong Playa falters on formula only occasionally, but otherwise remains a consistently agreeable romp that strikes just the right chord of ironic sentimentally.
– Ted Fry,
Seattle Times,
12 Sep 2008
fresh:
There's no resisting the movie's antic affability or its irreverence, even with Chris's unavoidable progression toward the mature appreciation of his roots.
– Ella Taylor,
L.A. Weekly,
11 Sep 2008
fresh:
The movie doesn't take its broad, jokey premise terribly far, but it manages to sustain a goofy-sweet comic energy and offers sly observations about assimilation, sibling rivalry and the art of competitive maternal bragging.
– Sheri Linden,
Los Angeles Times,
5 Sep 2008
rotten:
A decidedly lightweight amusement, the first comedy from documentary filmmaker Jessica Yu is the sort of movie that works best if you keep your expectations low.
– Elizabeth Weitzman,
