You won't need Superintelligence to steer clear of the latest forgettable comedy to fail to take full advantage of Melissa McCarthy's talents.

Robert Levin Newsday Melissa McCarthy is such a wonderful actor that it remains a shame that she keeps doing humorless and desperate movies like this. Rated: 1/4 Dec 8, 2020 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News It's frustrating when a film begins with a promise and then settles on doing the same old, same old. Rated: 2/4 Dec 4, 2020 Full Review Perri Nemiroff Perri Nemiroff (YouTube) Yet another bust from McCarthy and Falcone. McCarthy pops doing what she does best every now and then, but it's just not enough to support an unfunny AI romance that doesn't seem to understand how technology works. Rated: 1.5/5 Dec 2, 2020 Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut It doesn’t take any type of AI to figure out that the professional marriage between Melissa McCarthy and director Ben Falcone has to end. Superintelligence is another nail in the coffin of McCarthy’s once stellar comic career. Rated: 2/5 Sep 9, 2022 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies An inoffensive but unimaginative comedy... Rated: 2/5 Aug 17, 2022 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com ...offers plenty of opportunities for McCarthy to clown, but there's no-one to play off apart from Corden... Rated: 3/5 Jun 16, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

B C Melissa McCarthy Is brilliant and hilarious in what she does. I liked the idea of it. Got bored very fast. Was really put off by James Cordon, he ruined the film tbh. Couldn't get past the first 20min. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/15/24 Full Review Robert W Fun simple time killer move that is silly but cute. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/25/23 Full Review David B I like Melissa McC heaps. But .. this felt a rerun script. And James Corden performance, as usual, is utterly dire. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/01/23 Full Review Laura H I do love a non-serious movie and unharmful jokes that are no about fart and poo. And I loved them as a couple. I don't like the big participation of Tesla in the movie. Tesla is a toxic workplace, and it has no place in this movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/24/23 Full Review Dan L The movie appeared to be an advert for Tesla, my 10 year old son laughed at some of the jokes but not sure he was the target audience, although I'm not really sure who the target audience was supposed to be 🤷‍♂️ this is a really bad film, glad I didn't pay to watch it! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/17/23 Full Review Harley Q This movie I loved it. It was funny it was interesting with a hint of cringe as rom-coms have I all around loved it. I don't understand why it has poor reviews my friends and I was laughing the entire time we loved it. Definitely a must watch I mean I don't like rom-coms but I loved this one. Give it a chance it's awesome. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
