Critics Consensus

There's nothing good in Nothing But Trouble, a grotesque comedy that is more likely to make audiences ill than make them laugh.

Orlando Sentinel

For the most part, however, the humor depends upon the audience's finding the movie's repulsiveness funny.

Rated: 1/5

Occasionally, the talents of the cast burn through the haze of misfires and remembered routines.

Unfortunately this isn’t even half as fun as the shortest bumper-car ride.

…Aykroyd’s surreal brand of anti-authoritarian humour rules this particular kingdom…

Nothing but Trouble has the fascination of genuine atrocity. [Full review in Spanish]

Midwest Film Journal

A calamity by most objective measures. At best a paltry comedy. And yet ... AND YET ... the relentlessly repugnant energy here ceases to desist while you're watching and continues to persist long after you've stopped. A perversely fascinating bomb.

Rated: 3/5

🍀 1.0/10 I was checked out by the 20 minute mark. Few to many shitty jokes that don’t land and just unwatchable at points it’s just bad really really bad😀. This is literal ADHD. The tonal and quality whiplash of pi and this was crazy.

This movie has become a cult classic 30 years later with many people watching it again and again. When it came out people panned it, but over time it's aged very well and parents are now re-introducing it to their teenaged kids. Not sure how this was so hated when it was released but now so loved and treasured in our memories. It's hilarious to watch now, with a fantastic cast. Watching this brings back so many childhood memories. If you haven't seen it, I'd recommend it
