Ty Burr Washington Post No matter that Paymer has 11 years on Sedgwick; the two make a believable couple, he turning Richard into a sweet-natured ditherer and she making Ellen a past master at delivering put-downs with a well-meaning smile. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 25, 2025 Full Review Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times Because the film leans so heavily into its breakneck antics, the folks here mostly come off more as a collection of stereotypes than as realistic people tackling a credible crisis. Jun 9, 2025 Full Review Bob Strauss San Francisco Chronicle Neither too “oy vey” nor “Weekend at Bernie’s” but steeped in the best aspects of both Jewish and black comedy, “Bad Shabbos” is a treat any night of the week. Rated: 3/4 May 30, 2025 Full Review Zachary Goldkind In Review Online That the project hinges itself on a single joke in its first act... suggests a fundamental limitation rooted in simple juvenilia. Jul 24, 2025 Full Review James Verniere Boston Movie News I know I am in the minority. But this is a lot of shtick and cliches. Rated: C+ Jun 27, 2025 Full Review Daniel M. Kimmel North Shore Movies If you’re intrigued, you should take in “Bad Shabbos,” but you might want to wait until after sundown on Saturday – when actual Shabbos ends. Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 21, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
