Critics Consensus

An awkward blend of kid-friendly premise and thoroughly adult humor, Coffee & Kareem proves a distinctly unarresting odd couple comedy.

Tribune News Service

A profoundly irritating, cacophonous mess.

TheWrap

Things quickly escalate into chaos and stay there, but they do so in ways that are not quite funny enough to make you forget the implausibilities or the way serious stuff is played for bad jokes.

Polygon

Its uneven start isn't enough to make it a total miss.

Ready Steady Cut

Dowse’s film has a degree in crass, specializing in the cringe-worthy.

Rated: 1.5/5

The brand of humour relies on shock value, but every now and then it will hit you with something clever that comes along like a slice of pizza in the middle of a low carb diet.

Nick Levine

NME (New Musical Express)

Coffee & Kareem's predictable twists involving bent cops and gangsters who aren't as tough as they seem are reasonably entertaining, but it's difficult to shake the suspicion that this film is fundamentally misjudged.

Rated: 2/5

this movie is fucking terrible they should have shot the black lady its not a race thing but she is so fucking annoying. The best part in the movie is when her son shoots her ass with the taser when she wouldn't shut the fuck up.

I think the movie is really good. I think that the actors were so good! Terrence Little (Kareem) is Legit and no one can play that role better than Ed Helms. "Ok dude!? Look at the rating!" The reason for this Could? be because of the scene where Kareem is trying to teach Ed Helms character how to talk trash talk. Because of cancel culture, movie came out 2020, I believe that it was rated by upset people. This movie is Really good!! Taraji P. Henson isn't going to do a cheap, poorly written (this has 2-3 spots) or whatever!!! She could do Anything and after reading the script, talking career and she Chose this movie! Watch it! Then get back on here and let the people know! FOUR STARS
