Critics Consensus

While Jim Carrey's comedic skills earn some laughs, Me, Myself and Irene sports a tired, unsatisfying plot.

Me, Myself & Irene isn't nasty, but the aftertaste is hollow. The brothers are straining this time.

Peter and Bob Farrelly better slow down. At the rate they're going, they're bound to run out of material pretty soon.

Somewhat less than the sum of its parts, Me, Myself & Irene is overlong and choppy.

Carrey goes all out and almost manages to carry the whole thing by himself, but this is one of the Farrelly brothers' most weak, flat and disappointing scripts so far. [Full review in Spanish]

Me, Myself & Irene would've fared much, much better had it topped out at 90 minutes.

Great heavens, how awful haha. Unbelievably unfunny. I was drawn to see this from a clip I think, it turned out to be the only good moment in the whole runtime. Carrey is unbearable, and no other character comes close to being likable. Skip skip skip.

This movie is okay. It’s very weird and came low of my expectations. I was expecting more from it. It’s just alright.
