Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
The gross-out humor lacks edge, the guilt never kicks in, and the outrages are predictable. It's one flat brewski.

rotten:
...Berg's listless direction brings the film so little point of view that it doesn't much matter who lives or dies.

rotten:
Peter Berg's Very Bad Things isn't a bad movie, just a reprehensible one.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,

rotten:
...hollow, simple-minded and about as profound an experience as stepping in a pile of road kill.

rotten:
Berg is so in love with his escalating shock tactics that they quickly cease to shock.
