Fresh
The skewering of underdog sports cliches, horny teen staples and Vietnam-trauma melodrama is long overdue and perfectly irreverent in execution.

Wet Hot American Summer
Overview
It's the last day of Camp Firewood's season, but there's still time for the big talent show, a little romance… and for everyone to be wiped out by the piece of NASA's Skylab that's hurtling toward Earth.

Have a good summer.
Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press

For all its failings, Wet Hot maintains energy and high spirits over most of its length. The trouble is, such energy and spirits are not infectious, and the movies it mocks were better.
Bruce Westbrook, Houston Chronicle

This is supposed to be funny? It was so depressing I almost started to cry.
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post
Rotten
This is an almost laughless bomb.
