    Rarely will I walk out of a film and here I did just that. It is not funny. Acting or comedy is simply not saying ones lines louder than usual (which occurs much too often here). There is nothing fresh in this poor attempt at comedy. I would love to interview those who liked the film so to discern their intelligence. educational level or lack thereof. This film is for those with a very unsophisticated, poorly developed sense of humor. These people will love this film while most of us will wonder how did the bar get so low. Maybe the End is near after all.… Expand

    Hilarious. Destined to be a cult classic and funnier than 95% of mainstream comedies coming out these days.

    The funniest movie i have seen all year by far (even beating out hangover). I think this movie will be a big hit if it gets the advertising it deserves on a wide release.

    Satisfactory in every sense of the word, coming from a youtube craze and fanbase; mystery team definitely is a step up from almost everything dereck comedy has done. They all have great potential to keep us laughing and or entertained.

    Very funny, dragged a bit toward the end. Obviously geared toward comedy lovers and not professional film buffs who probably would have dissed "Airplane!" upon first release. The story felt a bit long, some things felt contrived, but the laughs never cease,

    Hilarious (in a childish sense), laid-back and absolutely ridiculous. The perfect mindless flick. Critics will hate it for its low cinematography but this movie not only hits the bar for funny but incremently raises it. Donald Glover is impeccable, hilarious, and yet does not take his role too seriously which just adds to the film's bravado. The jokes are endless, and the chemistry is on-point. I could not stop laughing. A movie to watch at any time of the day whether sad or happy. A great choice for an easy laugh.… Expand

    A genuinely funny but amateurishly constructed laffer from Derrick Comedy, a troupe of YouTube-savvy NYU grads with promising writing careers ahead of them.

    The twentysomething talents behind Mystery Team are still in the comedy minors, but this nerdy, nutty, perfectly pitched first swing suggests there are major things to come.

    There is only one joke here, milked endlessly.
