Marjorie Baumgarten Austin Chronicle Rated: 2/5 May 20, 2006 Full Review Nell Minow Movie Mom Rated: 2/5 Aug 20, 2003 Full Review Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times This isn't a great movie, but it sure is a nice one. Rated: 3/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media But in terms of achieving cheap laughs, this movie doesn't care about making sense. Its weakness is that it succumbs to the kind of dumb humor that runaway elephants supply. Apr 17, 2024 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a predominantly affable comedy that benefits from the thoroughly compelling and charming efforts of its stars... Rated: 3/4 Aug 10, 2022 Full Review Malcolm Johnson Hartford Courant Benjamin gives the film a sunny, screwball feeling and works nicely with a charming cast.

John A The actors here can't salvage the limp and sometimes implausible screenwriting. Was an enjoyable enough watch because of the 3 leads. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/09/24 Full Review Steve D Ridiculous but entertaining. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Andre G Not that great of a movie. It has some superstar actors. These two are really the most oddest couple to fall in love. Will Smith also makes me laugh, but that's about it. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/13/23 Full Review jonathan m Simple set up plot is fast just the script needed help, Basically the script needed the Carrie Fisher treatment she was a renound script editor. Strangely she worked on 3 of Whoppis scripts. Basically if a script was terrible or they didn't translate too well on camera Carrie would be called in and edit and give advice. Carrie Fisher used a lot of pen names so you never knew it was her. But the Carrie Fisher treatment was created! There is not a lot to say about this movie so I kinda just avoided that I like Whoopi and I like Ted! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Entertaining movie but not happy that animals (bear, elephant,..) are used and abused in Hollywood. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Hilarious despite Whoopie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
