Entertainment Weekly Owen Gleiberman
In its mingling of horniness and disgust, Tomcats attains a convoluted cleverness.
Read Full Review >New York Daily News Jami Bernard
An "American Pie" wanna-be that, in trying to be as tasteless as possible, sometimes succeeds.
Read Full Review >New York Post Jonathan Foreman
Much of Tomcats is actually boisterously, crudely entertaining.
Los Angeles Times Kevin Thomas
Raucously energetic and replete with a barrage of graphic sexual humor.
Read Full Review >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."
Read Full Review >Boston Globe Jay Carr
Isn't as funny as it is crude, and isn't as crude as it is labored.
Chicago Tribune Loren King
Just a schlock romance pumped with testosterone.
Chicago Reader Reece Pendleton
At least it has the decency not to pretend it's aspiring any higher than the toilet.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Dave Kehr
Desperately, depressingly in thrall to the Farrelly formula.
Read Full Review >Variety Todd McCarthy
A boner-headed comedy whose sense of gross-out humor is calculated rather than inspired.
Read Full Review >Rolling Stone Peter Travers
Laced with such rampant misogyny that the laughs stick in your throat.
Read Full Review >Mr. Showbiz Larry Terenzi
There aren't even any naked chicks in it. What the hell is up with that?
Read Full Review >Film.com Robert Horton
Re-adjust the levels of cinematic hell, because "Porky's" just got bumped up a notch.
Read Full Review >Washington Post Michael O'Sullivan
Go expecting the very worst. Just don't expect to laugh.
Read Full Review >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."
Read Full Review >San Francisco Chronicle Carla Meyer
Offers only tired jokes, grimace-worthy physical comedy and bad, bad acting.

Thatem W gave it a7:
Don't listen to the critics. This is a great protrayal of early-mid 90's craziness. Mature audience.
Michael R. gave it a7:
It was hilarious from start to finish.I remember practically every scene.
Brian n gave it a0:
It took 'my name is earl' to strike this demerit off Pressly's record. Horatio Sanz managed to make an even worse movie 2 years later when 'Boat Trip' released. in summation, this movie sucks.
Bertil A. gave it a2:
There is quite simply no reason to see this movie. It is completely pointless and does not make you smile once (I tried my very best).
Steve gave it a0:
Gives new meaning to the word "unwatchable."
Gino E. gave it a 5:
The funny bits are the little things. Like needing to first throw 20 cuddly toys of the best before you can make love to a girl... It's moments like this that made me smile. Mostly because I've been in those kind of situations myself.
Frenchies gave it a 10:
Nice film, nice gags, nice music!!
