Critics Consensus

Chris Rock's comedic instincts are muted and the female characters are unsatisfactorily drawn in this uneven sex farce/domestic drama mashup.

This is by far the worst movie I’ve ever seen. And oh my god that seen at the end when Chris Rock is taking off the woman’s panties so cringe. He’s probably like that in real life. Man this is horrific it is so bad. If I could give this stupid movie negative stars I would. And please stop with the lame ass gospel music it’s dumb.

This movie is really bad. I gave it about 45 minutes and had to change the channel. The only upside was Kerry Washington but strangely she looked the same as she does today in 2020 but in the movie she looks as old as she does today lol

Time Out

Rock's breakthrough as a director -- a chance for him to grapple openly with his status as a maturing (but still ostensibly immature) comedian.

Scott Tobias

AV Club

One of the film's key revelations is that his resistance to having an affair comes as much from wishing to maintain his lifestyle (the high-paying job, the nice house, the kids) as from loyalty to his wife. Why sharp observations like that one would need

Gone With The Twins

A laugh-less comedy, an unmoving drama, and a ragtag assemblage of feeble characters spouting pathetic dialogue.

Bowling Green Daily News

Rock tries to add some humorous moments, but most come off as either crass and crude or just plain weird.

Just imagine how much more authentic, topical and engaging this would be if Rock made this film in 2015 instead of eight years earlier.
