It's a case of mistaken ethnicity, where two non-Italians pretend to be Italian to win each others hearts in Boston's North End.

Everybody Wants to Be Italian Ratings & Reviews
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
A clarification is in order. Nobody wants to be these Italians.
7M Pictures
Kevin Carr
Instead of making a likeable main character, the filmmakers give us the egotistical, brash, rude and obnoxious character of Jake.
Slant Magazine
Micah Towery
This particular film surely straddles the line between 'romp' and 'zany,' and maybe even deserves that most hallowed of accolades: 'zany romp.'
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
This lame-brain romantic comedy strives hard for a shambling charm, but is unlikely to prove appealing to even the most undemanding of audiences.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A dreadful romantic comedy with totally unappealing characters.
Salt Lake Tribune
Sean P. Means
If you thought the ethnic stereotyping in My Big Fat Greek Wedding was bad, this charmless romantic comedy will drive you to despair.
Cinematical
Nick Schager
[Sets] up hackneyed relationships, conflicts and resolutions with such a lack of imagination and subtlety that paying attention to narrative particulars quickly becomes a waste of time.
Paste Magazine
Sean Gandert
The film is a reminder why romantic comedies have died off so much in recent years.
Variety
Justin Chang
A box of cannoli long past its sell-by date.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
Writer-director Jason Todd Ipson's romantic comedy is so awash in tired ethnic clichs that the story drowns.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Full of clunky humor, battle-of-the-sexes musings and spicy accordion music, Everybody Wants to Be Italian is relentless -- but not necessarily relentless fun.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
The film plays out pretty much exactly as you would expect -- which won't bother some people one iota.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
With a title like this, shouldn't Jason Todd Ipson's comedy celebrate Italian culture? Instead, it aggressively insults the heritage it pretends to admire.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
How atrocious is the comedy Everybody Wants to Be Italian? Let me count the ways.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Jeff Vice
It's pretty obvious. Everybody Wants to Be Italian wants to be the next My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Unfortunately, it doesn't have nearly as much charm as the 2002 sleeper. In fact, Italian doesn't have much charm to it at all.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
Romantic comedies don't always have the strongest concepts, but Everybody Wants to Be Italian begins with what barely qualifies as an idea.
New York Press
Mark Peikert
Maybe if Everybody Wants To Be Italian were even intermittently funny, the stereotypes wouldn't matter.
ComingSoon.net
Edward Douglas
If Italians had their own term for 'schmaltzy', this awful, derivative and painfully cringeworthy piece of steaming crap would be the most loathsome example of such an adjective.
Compuserve
Harvey S. Karten
Has more the feeling of a TV serial than a well-structured movie.
