Mascots Ratings & Reviews
Ryezoo
February 15, 2025
What a weird movie. It's like the office for mascots without the same amount of laughs. I found myself smirking a lot, but never a audible laugh. Some of the characters were funny, while others were straight annoying. Loved the fist and the beaver. This was able to hold my interest to finish but never amounted to the potential of comedy of gold it could of reached.
Associated Press
Mark Kennedy
There's a deep hollowness under the funny suit.
Vice
Pilot Viruet
Mascots coasts along on the strength of its actors (Bob Balaban, Jennifer Coolidge, and John Michael Higgins all show up) and the charm that is a mainstay of all Guest mockumentaries, regardless of quality.
Common Sense Media
Renee Schonfeld
Goofy Christopher Guest faux docu has sex, bawdy language.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
Guest never wanders too far from his comedic safe zone: He is a master at finding humor in how seriously we take ourselves. But no one is complaining.
Vox
Caroline Framke
As a whole, though, Mascots only occasionally rises above "pretty okay." Guest's actors...commit to the material, but the improv isn't as consistently sharp... as it was in A Mighty Wind or Best in Show, and the movie ends up lagging because of it.
Slate
Dan Kois
Mascots is determinedly minor-league. But like the bruschetta- and anchovy-scented cups sold at the event for male mascots to stuff into their costumes, it's offbeat and refreshing nonetheless.
RogerEbert.com
Susan Wloszczyna
As hard as it is to admit, Guest's once-incisive satirical bite has grown dull in its familiarity. He doesn't seem to be having as much fun here and neither are we.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
The only thing Mascots has to be is laugh-out-loud funny, and yet, most of the time, the only things it elicits are reflexive chuckles and a sense of creeping boredom.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Although "Mascots" is neither as funny nor as satirically acute as its forerunner, it would be churlish to complain too loudly.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
Not only seems overly familiar and only modestly inspired but also stuck in a bit of a time warp.
Entertainment Weekly
Devan Coggan
If you're a Guest devotee, you'll be in the stands cheering; otherwise, Mascots feels like a bit of a retread.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
'Mascots' starts off so well, with so much earned goodwill and so much of the Christopher Guest gang's irreverent sweetness, that it's a shame it runs out of gas so loudly in the second half.
The Verge
Tasha Robinson
It feels odd to say this, but the primary problem with Christopher Guest's latest improvised-dialogue mockumentary is that it just isn't mean enough.
TheWrap
Steve Pond
"Mascots" isn't a revelation or a new high-water mark for Guest - but it is a demonstration of how good he is at this kind of stuff.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Fagerholm
This film is a trifle raunchier than Guest's previous fare, and though it's not as consistently uproarious as his best work, it is pretty darn close.
Slant Magazine
Kenji Fujishima
The rapid-fire gags result in a hit-or-miss pattern, ranging from the wickedly inspired to the overly broad.
The Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Dalton
The jokes are uneven, the caricatures often overly broad, and the plot almost nonexistent.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
It's got a few chuckles, but mostly it plays like a rerun of past comic glories.
The Daily Beast
Jen Yamato
The rewards are subtle but a bit too far in between; much of it feels familiar, which will bring both comfort and frustration to fans.
