Mick LaSalle

Feb 10, 2011

A very funny romantic comedy that nicely combines Adam Sandler's acerbic sweetness with Aniston's down-to-earth warmth. Read full review

A loose but fairly snappy remake of the 1969 charmer "Cactus Flower." Read full review

A.O. Scott

Feb 10, 2011

There is some cheap homophobia at the end, and a lot of the kind of misogyny that treats the existence of nonthin, nonrich, nonwhite women as a joke in itself. Read full review

Joshua Rothkopf

Sandler's puppy-dog persona is just about ready to be put down. From its title on, this is entertainment for extremely lazy audiences. Read full review

James Berardinelli

Akin to watching a bad sit-com that never ends. Read full review

Andrew O'Hehir

Feb 11, 2011

An Adam Sandler comedy, which means it bears only a superficial relationship to the customary conventions of moviemaking, and also that there's no use getting all worked up about that. Read full review

Dana Stevens

Feb 10, 2011

A comedy so noxious it seems the product of deliberate malignity. Surely the sour, vapid, miserable world of this movie can't reflect any real human being's notion of what love or humor or good storytelling is-not even a Hollywood screenwriter's. Read full review

I think the critics just like to be negative of any Sandler or Aniston film. Thought Jennifer Aniston did a great job and Nicole Kidman was surprisingly funny as well. I laughed the entire time. Fun movie highly recommend it!

This is where the critics really fall down. There is nothing ground breaking here, nothing new, it is all predictable. However, it is very good at what it does. Surprisingly, The chemistry between Anniston and Sandler is really, really good. The acting is actually superb. They play it low key, but this movie is easy to watch, full of smiles and laughs, and a great joy.… Expand

For those that say no guy would choose Jennifer Aniston over Brooklyn Decker, as we walked out of the movie, my husband (who is a very normal 30 something man) turned to me and said "That is a no-brainer . . . Jennifer Aniston WITHOUT A DOUBT!". Jennifer is awesome - I love her and enjoyedFor those that say no guy would choose Jennifer Aniston over Brooklyn Decker, as we walked out of the movie, my husband (who is a very normal 30 something man) turned to me and said "That is a no-brainer . . .

It was not a great movie by any means, but it was really funny and we did not regret spending the money or time on it. I am tired of the far-fetched movies that don't make sense, but at least this one KEPT ME LAUGHING!!… Expand

The first time I saw this film I liked it, I enjoyed the humor and really liked the cast. I just saw the film a second time, and still feel the same way about the film; I must admit that I am lowering my rating a bit, but I still thoroughly enjoyed this film.

I just saw the film a second time, and still feel the same way about the film; I must admit that I am lowering my rating a bit, but I still thoroughly enjoyed this film. The title "Just Go With It" is the perfect way to describe this film. To enjoy this film you must go along with the fact that it's completely unbelievable, ridiculous, over-the-top, and exhausting. But all the while there is a humor and charm that holds this film together that allows for a really fun time. The cast is great! Sandler is funny, Aniston is great, Nick Swardson is funny, Brooklyn Decker is hot, Nicole Kidman is fun, and young Bailee Madison is so good! I had a great time with this film, there is genuine humor and the cast is really nice.… Expand

This movie is a chore to sit through. The attempts at humour make me cringe and the whole vacation part of the film just seems like an excuse for the actors and crew to go on vacation.

The attempts at humour make me cringe and the whole vacation part of the film just seems like an excuse for the actors and crew to go on vacation. Adam Sandler still feels like he's playing the same character he plays in all his other movies so to say his performance is getting stale would be an understatement. The only reason I don't regret watching this movie is that when someone says they've seen the worst movie ever, I can say "you clearly haven't seen Just Go With It"… Expand
