Critic Reviews

New York Daily News - Jack Mathews

Eddie Murphy's latest comedy, The Adventures of Pluto Nash, takes place in the year 2087, which is about the earliest he can hope to be forgiven. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine - Ken Fox

There are worse movies, but that's no excuse. Rarely has so much money delivered so little entertainment. Read full review

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - Kevin Courrier

A limp Eddie Murphy vehicle that even he seems embarrassed to be part of. Read full review

Los Angeles Times - Jan Stuart

It's not awful, but the high cost of a movie ticket these days seems like a steep price to pay for 90 minutes of air conditioning and production design.

Boston Globe - Wesley Morris

Cosmic slop.

L.A. Weekly - Paul Malcolm

Murphy slogs his way through this dismally dull sci-fi comedy. Read full review

New York Post - Lou Lumenick

So unremittingly awful that labeling it a dog probably constitutes cruelty to canines. Read full review

This is my most favorite film in the universe. Sure, the budget was 100mil and they only got 7mil, making Warner Bros lose 93million dollars... but that's because people didn't see it and didn't want to know how good it was. This deserves film of the century.

This is one of my most FAVORITE movies. I had heard so amny negative things I was scared to watch it. But when I did, I laughed all the way through. Randy Quaid was hilarious! He was my favorite. The music was also fantastic. The movie was fun when you didn't take it too seriously and This is one of my most FAVORITE movies. I had heard so amny negative things I was scared to watch it.

It's pretty lousy. Most of the actors have kind of a "what the hell am I doing here?" look on my face. The jokes fall flat, and I'm assuming they didn't make this movie for the plot.

Simply awful. This mush should be fed to the Taliban and other Islamo-fascists until they are dead (which shouldn't take too long).

Painfully unfunny, and just a total mess of a movie, I just can't stand it's unfunny ness, and seeing Eddie Murphy just not being funny, which is just painful.
