Easter Sunday Ratings & Reviews
DwightBrownInk.com
Dwight Brown
Jo Koy's vibrant spirit leaves a lasting impression.
WORLD
Collin Garbarino
Easter Sunday was supposed to capitalize on the humor that goes along with being part of a large immigrant family, but in the end the movie is a missed opportunity.
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
There are bits of humor that work here, and the heart is in the right place, but for the most part, this is one of those comedies that doesn't supply much of what one is looking for, meaning it just kind of sits there.
Movie Madness Podcast
Erik Childress
When all else fails - and literally everything but one line fails - Jo Koy resorts to just solving problems with stand-up comedy and cutaways to laughter that are the equivalent of an applause sign until it compounds into a near murder-kidnapping.
Willamette Week
Ray Gill Jr.
Easter Sunday reflects on the realities of generational assimilation, but it never loses sight of the inherent humor that only family can expose.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Tim Cogshell
This is pretty funny -- starts slow but finishes strong.
Rolling Stone
Katie Rife
It's clear that Jo Koy loves his relatives, and wants the world to know it. It's just that his style would be better served within the more earnest confines of a traditional multi-cam sitcom.
Associated Press
Jocelyn Noveck
One can't help leaving with a smile. Food, family, a big karaoke scene… and a spotlight on an immigrant community underrepresented in Hollywood. There are worse ways to spend 96 minutes.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Thelma Adams
Koy nails the stand-up bits, taking over for the priest on Easter Sunday and delivering an amusing impromptu sermon. But, as a character, he's about as believable as Easter in August.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Representation aside, "Easter Sunday" never rises past standard sitcom-level clichés and plotting. Its heart may be in the right place, but its execution is as wayward as releasing an Easter film in August.
New York Times
Concepción de León
The film features mostly Filipino actors, with wonderful, culturally specific jokes and a cast of characters that fit into stereotypical, but no less true, immigrant archetypes.
RogerEbert.com
Nell Minow
The entire cast is excellent, including a surprise Filipino guest star. It's a pleasure to see their jubilance in bringing their culture to screen, which shines even in the script's weakest moments.
IndieWire
Vikram Murthi
The film's general laziness is its most disappointing element. Every performer conveys sincere enthusiasm to be on screen with other Filipino actors, but their joy is squandered by a cartoonish story that squanders its honest core.
Austin Chronicle
Sarah Jane
There were a few good things about this, not least a great supporting cast... a few surprise cameos that really work, one of them providing the funniest scenes in the movie.
Variety
Lisa Kennedy
It's absolutely worth celebrating that the comedian wanted to make a family friendly comedy that teased but also honored Filipino American life. It should have been possible to make it funnier and keen.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
It falls hopelessly flat in its comedic aspirations, more closely resembling the sort of bland network sitcom to which its main character aspires.
TheWrap
Robert Abele
Somewhere along the way, Koy's dynamic way with a funny story and insights into Filipino identity got lost in the demands of a movie.
AV Club
Leigh Monson
'Easter Sunday', for all its faults, is still nominally watchable, but it's a wasteland of unfocused potential.
Washington Post
Pat Padua
Even if you don't get all the ethnic jokes, there's plenty of family drama that anybody will recognize, no matter their background.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
The folks on the screen are the whole show, and this genial showcase for standup comic Jo Koy has the advantage of showing off a wealth of Asian/Pacific American talent, pretty badly undervalued by establishment Hollywood.
