Lou Lumenick · New York Post 63.00/100.00

Fonda is a hoot and a half.

Akoltuniuk 5.00/10.00

This was not the movie I expected it to be. I don't think it holds together very well and feels like a collection of skits as opposed to a cohesive film. Would not watch it again.

Mick LaSalle · San Francisco Chronicle 75.00/100.00

A generational spectacle that's fun to witness.
