Critics Consensus

Its flagrantly silly script -- and immensely likable cast -- make up for most of its flaws.

I'll go, it's a comedy, it'll be dumb and funny. And it was dumb. But it wasn't that funny yet.

An irreverent, guilty pleasure, frat boy comedy, it blows a big fat raspberry at sci-fi fans and tells them to stick their Flux Capacitors where the sun don't shine.

It may be a generational gap that turned me off, but I thought it was all quite ridiculous and the dialogue worse than coarse. Trust me and not those in their 30s. It is not worth your time.

2.5/4

The result is the kind of lazy comedy that demands a lazy audience. If you’re feeling lazy, you could do worse.

It has a great cast, and it was a funny movie. It's one of those that shows up on the TV right when you turn it on, and then you simply don't stop watching it.

Seriously funny movie! Reminded me of myself and my idiotic friends. This movie is a fun one and a must watch if you have friends that are dummies.

While it's not a film that screams "go out and see me immediately", I enjoyed watching it. To me, it's one of the real last modern funny films of this century, or really modern times (let's face it: modern comedies are dogshit.) with just enough humor and nostalgia to keep me coming back every once in a while. John Cusack was enjoyable, as was the main cast. plenty of memorable lines. above all else, SKIP THE SEQUEL. Seriously, don't even bother with it. talk about an F5 fire-tornado over a toxic sewage waste site. it's time and energy you'll never get back.
