Showtime Ratings & Reviews
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
So pleased with its own spoofy conceit it stays in annoyingly self-amused, predictable mode.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
[U]neven but frequently engaging comedy ...
Chicago Tribune
Mark Caro
The thinness of the conception gives the actors so little room to maneuver that they turn in uniformly one-note performances.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
It's definitely a hate-yourself-in- the-morning glut.
USA Today
Mike Clark
... Showtime isn't much of a show at all.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
If anyone ever needed a demonstration of what happens to actors when that ventriloquist known as the screenwriter is missing in action, this is it.
Newsday
John Anderson
Everyone involved should be arrested.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
De Niro looks bored, Murphy recycles Murphy, and you mentally add Showtime to the pile of Hollywood dreck that represents nothing more than the art of the deal.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Showtime's complete lack of originality oozes off the screen like, um, rancid popcorn butter.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
What can you say when the best thing about a movie is William Shatner playing himself and parodying his own persona?
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
A funny movie for adults and older teens.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
Without a heavy dose of self-reflexive irony, the film's ample use of cliches don't come across as clever -- they're just cliches.
Village Voice
Jessica Winter
90 punitive minutes of eardrum-dicing gunplay, screeching-metal smashups, and flaccid odd-couple sniping.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
This has the feel of something that was written by committee and it's all been done before.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
It's not so much the generally preposterous premise as it is its sloppy handling that completely unhinges the film.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
So how many exes and children does Robert De Niro have to support, anyway? It's one of the things you could think about while enduring the abysmal Showtime ...
Detroit News
Susan Stark
Between them, De Niro and Murphy make Showtime the most savory and hilarious guilty pleasure of many a recent movie season.
Denver Post
Steven Rosen
It's really yet another anemic and formulaic Lethal Weapon-derived buddy-cop movie, trying to pass off its lack of imagination as hip knowingness.
Dallas Morning News
Philip Wuntch
Showtime's starry cast could be both an asset and a detriment. Those who trek to the 'plex predisposed to like it probably will enjoy themselves. But ticket-buyers with great expectations will wind up as glum as Mr. De Niro.
