The New York Times
Dana Stevens
The movie's comic heart consists of a series of indescribably loopy, elaborately conceived happenings that are at once rigorous and chaotic, idiotic and brilliant.

50
Chicago Reader
Lisa Alspector
The earnestness of some of the drama in the only deceptively unsophisticated narrative may be more shocking than any of the gross-outs.

50
Village Voice
Jessica Winter
A frat-boy remake of "Pink Flamingos" which isn't all bad.

50
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
His (Green) new gross-out comedy is crude and stupid, but just as often rudely funny. It doesn't so much push the envelope as shred it.
50
New Times (L.A.)
Luke Y. Thompson
The film is a somewhat disjointed affair that, like the man himself (Green), is occasionally brilliant, frequently repetitive and sometimes merely annoying.

40
TV Guide
Steve Simels
To be fair, this is hardly the worst gross-out comedy ever made; it's nowhere as misogynistic as, say, "Tomcats," and in the end, it probably won't leave you in a state of utter nihilistic despair.

25
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
Formidably stupid.
25
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
Exhaustingly manic but curiously unfunny movie.

25
San Francisco Chronicle
Wesley Morris
The film is like watching Ozzy Osbourne bite the head off a rubber bat -- it's only almost heinous.

25
USA Today
Susan Wloszczyna
Not since Andy Kaufman's reign of terror has a supposed funnyman been so self-indulgently persistent in testing a fan's patience.

20
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
It feels manufactured to be suitable for mass consumption.

20
Mr. Showbiz
Cody Clark
It's a gleefully unfettered gross-a-thon first --also second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth -- and a movie perhaps seventh.
10
LA Weekly
John Patterson
Lurches from one set-piece stomach-lurcher to the next with nary a nod to narrative coherence.

10
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
The movie is simply not professional. It's not, even by the lowest standards of Republic B-westerns in the '30s or bad, cheap horror films in the '50s, releasable.

10
Film.com
Robert Horton
Do not bring children to this movie unless you want them to have nightmares for weeks.

10
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
In a sense, this is a horror film, worse than anything Andy Kaufman could dream up, in which Green tries to outgross himself.

10
Los Angeles Times
Gene Seymour
Even the movie finds itself asking when it'll end. Not soon enough.

10
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
It's a performance that screams "Look at me!" louder and bigger than an elephant dick. And every bit as subtle.

0
Chicago Tribune
Robert K. Elder
Bad decision after bad decision occurs over 93 minutes.
0
Variety
Robert Koehler
One of the most brutally awful comedies ever to emerge from a major studio.

0
Slate
David Edelstein
The most appalling comedy of the millennium after "Joe Dirt," which is so supernaturally terrible that it levitated me out of the theater after 40 minutes.

0
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
To dismiss this movie for being ''offensive'' would be to offer it high praise.

0
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
So awful it qualifies as cruel and unusual punishment.
0
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This movie doesn't scrape the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't below the bottom of the barrel. This movie doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with barrels.

0
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Green, who looks like a chinless, hollow-eyed pederast at the best of times, is simply out of his league here, and the fact that the film drags interminably when it's actually a very average 90 minutes long betrays its essential emptiness.
