Down to Earth Ratings & Reviews
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
When Rock finds his authentic swing as an actor as well as a comedian, he'll be, like, a movie god.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
A ham-handed fantasy that manages the damn near impossible feat of making Chris Rock unfunny.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
For a comedy, there are precious few real laughs.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
It's pretty consistently funny, if far generations removed from anything original.
San Francisco Chronicle
Bob Graham
Heaven can wait and so can the audience for the new Chris Rock comedy ever to catch fire.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
The people behind this movie ... wisely devote 25 percent of the film to Rock's stand-up routine.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Rarely has a pair of leather pants been so sorely abused in the service of low comedy.
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
Likeable Chris Rock in a comedy about race.
New York Times
Elvis Mitchell
Mildly amusing.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Mr. Rock's opening scene is very funny. After that it's a steep downhill slide.
Slate
Matthew Feeney
The makers of Down to Earth were faced with a dilemma nobody would have anticipated: Boosting their star's screen time kills the comedy.
Village Voice
Caleb Crain
Almost every minute of Down to Earth is entertaining. But not quite surprising.
USA Today
Mike Clark
Affable but forgettable.
Seattle Times
Mark Rahner
The movie is still mostly just a weak rehash of its already-light predecessors, and what humor there is mostly comes off as just plain, ah, stiff.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
Doesn't feel fat or padded, like so many contemporary comedies, and its very leanness is appealing.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
At its best, Down to Earth is pleasant, relatively inoffensive vehicle for Rock, who, at least, proves that he can 'carry' a movie. But next time, please, no remakes.
Newsday
Jan Stuart
This medium-octane farce is neither as uproarious as its star and set-up promise nor as inept as every other studio picture released in recent weeks.
New York Post
Jonathan Foreman
Unfortunately, a lot of the potential for humor is wasted because the movie audience can't see what the people around Lance magically see.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
A feeble effort that feels interminable even at a lean 86 minutes.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
As funny as he is on a concert stage, and as smart as his humor sometimes was on his recently ended HBO show, the man can't act.
