New York Times

Looks like a comedy, acts like a comedy and sounds like a comedy, but it isn't funny.

Rated: 2/5

[Bob Funk] insists that we find charm in its protagonist's most odious behavior.

Slant Magazine

Playing the misogynistic, bar-hopping, impulsive, titular irritant, Campbell's thespy histrionics come off as truly labored.

Rated: 1/4

An aggressively unwatchable comedy...

The dry, witty first half is far more interesting, even if it's ultimately more amusing than funny.

Bob Funk is terrifically cast and performed, with some good lines. Shame the story and character development are so clich and banal.

Rated: 3/6

Honestly, it wasn't a bad movie. Definitely nothing to scream about, but I did enjoy the cast, many of whom I've seen in other films & TV series. This I would recommend if you're simply looking to pass the time.

Not perfect, but really enjoyable. The second half was better. But... They say they counted 12 reviews for this film but like... four of them are the same review in different papers. That seems unfair. The film is worth watching.

Bob Funk wasnt that bad of a movie some hilarious scenes in but Rachel Leigh Cook was the reason i bought the dvd. Stephen Root is just as funny here as he was in NewsRadio
