Carpool Ratings & Reviews
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
The humor is too feeble to overcome the repetitive lethargy of the formulaic storyline.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Stack
Carpool, the new Tom Arnold comedy, is one ride to avoid, unless truly idiotic car-chase slapstick comedies are the destination genre.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Watching a Tom Arnold movie is like getting trapped in a room with a barking dog for 90 minutes.
Entertainment Weekly
Ty Burr
Hard to hate, but just about impossible to like.
Moviehole
Caffeinated Clint
the wheel's fall off this thing pretty early on
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Nothing about the movie makes much sense:
Cinematter
Madeleine Williams
A rather inane and dull family comedy, Carpool is merely a bundle of chase cliches surrounded by unappealing characters.
Variety
Variety Staff
A ramshackle if amiable chase comedy.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
A clunker of a chase movie that gets more mileage out of its cut-the-cheese jokes than it does from the this comic duo.
Los Angeles Times
Jack Mathews
What is this, an idea?
New York Times
Janet Maslin
Wide-eyed and mirthlessly peppy, Mr. Arnold soon wears out his welcome as a bumbling would-be bank robber who commandeers a group of young hostages.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Roger Hurlburt
Despite its "family comedy" packaging, parents may balk at taking kids to Carpool, where kidnapping at gunpoint is intended to trigger humor.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Jeff Vice
A really unfunny comedy that makes the Three Stooges' shorts seem like humorous masterpieces.
Boxoffice Magazine
There's enough harmless, dumb fun here to keep the tykes quiet for a couple of hours, and that as much as the movie may be worth the price of admission.
TV Guide
Indifferently directed and almost aggressively tedious, we'd call it cliched if they'd even bothered getting the cliches right.
