Chicago Tribune, Michael Phillips: “Starts out wobbly but ends up quite nicely, primarily because Carrey has a wonderful acting partner in Zooey Deschanel.”

The Hollywood Reporter, Michael Rechtshaffen: “Carrey’s most satisfying live-action effort since “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.”

Entertainment Weekly, Owen Gleiberman: “This is basically a nerd-loosening-his-tie romantic
comedy done in the manic-compulsive mode of “Liar Liar.”

USA Today, Claudia Puig: “Yes, yes, it’s Liar Liar 2.”

Chicago Sun-Times, Roger Ebert: “Jim Carrey works the premise for all it’s worth, but it doesn’t allow him to bust loose and fly.”

New York Daily News, Elizabeth Weitzman: “An appealing Deschanel does her best, but the pair is mismatched in every way, from age to attitude. The entire movie is hung on Carrey’s shtick, so if you’re a fan, you’ll have a decent time.”
