My Best Friend's Girl Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Reece Pendleton
There's something genuinely transgressive beneath the movie's rom-com surface, though director Howard Deutch keeps retreating to the safety of frat-boy humor.
Hollywood.com
Pete Hammond
Yet another in a continuing line of dismal Dane Cook so-called romantic comedies.
Austin Chronicle
Josh Rosenblatt
Any schmuck with a typewriter and a dirty mouth can test the limits of good taste; it's something else entirely to push the boundaries of narrative possibility and emotional empathy.
Film Journal International
Frank Lovece
A raunchy vehicle for Dane Cook fans? A sprightly romance for Kate Hudson fans? A genial underdog comedy for Jason Biggs fans? The correct answer is: a big, steaming pile of horse manure.
Sin Magazine
Austin Kennedy
It works much better as a comedy, but by the end, the romantic aspect has taken over and there's not much humor to be found after the first half.
Sacramento News & Review
Jim Lane
[Director Howard] Deutch passes the buck to his three stars...
Boxoffice Magazine
Amy Nicholson
Cahan's curious and increasingly sincere slant on modern romance outshines its efforts to please Cook's MySpace fan base with gross-out gags (some of which are damned funny).
AV Club
Scott Tobias
In order for My Best Friend's Girl to work at all, it needs a leading man with the charisma to suggest the soulful, lovelorn gentleman behind the crude serial womanizer.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
The inexplicable romantic comedy career of Dane Cook marches on.
New York Times
Laura Kern
There are no surprises here, but speedy pacing and a smattering of laughs along the way, as well as a knowing turn by Alec Baldwin as Tank's even more piggish father, make My Best Friend's Girl a date not entirely to be skipped.
Los Angeles Times
Michael Ordoña
Ultimately, its most unforgivable sin is that it's simply not funny.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
It borrows from much funnier movies such as Hitch, Wedding Crashers and My Best Friend's Wedding. Never has a romantic comedy seemed less romantic or less comedic.
Slant Magazine
Rob Humanick
My Best Friend's Girl ultimately fails to measure up to its own standards.
CinemaBlend
Katey Rich
It's disturbing to think of the millions of teenage boys who will laugh when he insults a girl to get her in bed, or pees in a cactus plant at a restaurant.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Eventually the conventions of romantic comedy take hold, with the humor declining precipitously.
Variety
Joe Leydon
Cook is most amusing while emphasizing his sardonic edginess, a trait that may eventually serve him well in some anti-heroic (or downright villainous) dramatic role. Better still, he establishes an effectively fluid give-and-take with Hudson.
Entertainment Weekly
Gregory Kirschling
The actors (especially Alec Baldwin, as Tank's horndog dad) elevate the material slightly, but such piffle will just fill you with longing... for a better movie.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
The movie spends a lot of time trying to be cute, vulgar and cutely vulgar. But it forgets about character, plot and believability.
MSNBC
Alonso Duralde
Want to spend a seemingly endless 100 minutes watching a dullard trying to decide between a douchebag and a eunuch? Then run, don't walk, to My Best Friend's Girl, a supremely irritating movie about idiots and their dull quest for unconvincing love
