Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
There's more juice in the story than I usually expect from Neil Simon; the characters don't just trade one-liners, but get under each other's skins.

rotten:
The Marrying Man isn't awful; it's something much less fun - conspicuously mediocre.

rotten:
"The Marrying Man" seems to have died en route from Neil Simon's brain to the movie theater, but exactly where and why is anybody's guess. An autopsy by a professional is in order.

It's hard to spot vintage Neil Simon in his screenplay for this indulgent comedy...

A stillborn romantic comedy of staggering ineptitude.
