Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
In its mingling of horniness and disgust, Tomcats attains a convoluted cleverness.

50
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
An "American Pie" wanna-be that, in trying to be as tasteless as possible, sometimes succeeds.

50
New York Post
Jonathan Foreman
Much of Tomcats is actually boisterously, crudely entertaining.
50
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Raucously energetic and replete with a barrage of graphic sexual humor.

50
USA Today
Mike Clark
This is 90 minutes of gags of the lowest order, yet Poirier occasionally injects them with more energy than anything in "Heartbreakers."

38
Boston Globe
Jay Carr
Isn't as funny as it is crude, and isn't as crude as it is labored.
38
Chicago Tribune
Loren King
Just a schlock romance pumped with testosterone.
30
TV Guide
Steve Simels
Criticism seems irrelevant at best.

20
Chicago Reader
Reece Pendleton
At least it has the decency not to pretend it's aspiring any higher than the toilet.

20
The New York Times
Dave Kehr
Desperately, depressingly in thrall to the Farrelly formula.

20
Variety
Todd McCarthy
A boner-headed comedy whose sense of gross-out humor is calculated rather than inspired.

10
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Laced with such rampant misogyny that the laughs stick in your throat.

10
LA Weekly
John Patterson
Grotesque and ugly.

5
Mr. Showbiz
Larry Terenzi
There aren't even any naked chicks in it. What the hell is up with that?

Film.com
Robert Horton
Re-adjust the levels of cinematic hell, because "Porky's" just got bumped up a notch.

0
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
File this one under What Were They Thinking?

0
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Go expecting the very worst. Just don't expect to laugh.

0
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
There is a bright spot. He (Poirier) used up all his doggy-do-do ideas in the first picture "See Spot Run."

0
San Francisco Chronicle
Carla Meyer
Offers only tired jokes, grimace-worthy physical comedy and bad, bad acting.
