Critics Consensus

Lauren Lapkus lifts The Wrong Missy above abject failure, but this lazy comedy will be the wrong option for all but the most Happy Madison-starved viewers.

Overly obnoxious, and not easy to watch. I really don't know how my girlfriend loves the movie so much.

57%. Funniest parts involve Nick Swardson. The girl is outrageous and cringey but occasionally was funny. Ridiculous how David Spade gets the hot Missy. Really just about how the wrong Missy ends up on David Spade's work retreat and acts a fool and then he ends up falling for her. 1/5 rewatch

I did not think this was a very good movie. I quit watching after they got to the destination resort.

Love it I laugh so hard at this movie. I watch it often enough to think I have a problem.

Richard Brody

New Yorker

With her idiosyncratic and energetic performance, Lauren Lapkus deserves more nuanced writing and direction than she gets in this cleverly conceived but scattershot romantic comedy.

Amy Nicholson

New York Times

Lapkus embarrasses herself with confidence. Her full-throttle verve transcends the script like a water skier leaping over a Great White.

Rated: D

One can't shake the impression that Spade has been handed his unwanted leftovers.

Manual labor, oral surgery, or even an insurance lecture would be a more entertaining way to spend your time.

Fans of Adam Sandler films will find plenty to enjoy in The Wrong Missy, but everyone else will be left wondering why such a mediocre product could be at all appealing.

The Baffler

The Wrong Missy is a throwaway comedy with an emasculated David Spade in a bad haircut and dye job, less than one-one-hundredth as funny as he was doing monologues on Instagram...
