Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
The skewering of underdog sports cliches, horny teen staples and Vietnam-trauma melodrama is long overdue and perfectly irreverent in execution.

rotten:
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.

This is supposed to be funny? It was so depressing I almost started to cry.

This is an almost laughless bomb.
