Sorted by:
The Onion (A.V. Club) | Scott TobiasAdd Critic to Favorites

You, Me And Dupree isn't terribly democratic about spreading the laughs around; whenever Wilson disappears from the screen, the comedy evaporates in kind.Read the full review

Entertainment Weekly | Owen GleibermanAdd Critic to Favorites

Isn't a very funny movie (it preaches nonconformity in the rote style of an overlit sitcom), but Wilson, at least, keeps it afloat.Read the full review

Variety | Justin ChangAdd Critic to Favorites

A middling third-wheel comedy elevated a couple of notches by the ineffably weird charms of Owen Wilson.Read the full review

Los Angeles Times | Carina ChocanoAdd Critic to Favorites

Doesn't aspire to be much more than a serviceable summer comedy, and the script displays the engineered precision of a theme park ride.Read the full review

The Hollywood Reporter | Kirk HoneycuttAdd Critic to Favorites

The comedy is obvious and flat while the drama is stale. They did do one thing right, however: They attracted a stellar cast.Read the full review

ReelViews | James BerardinelliAdd Critic to Favorites

A mess of conflicting tones and missed opportunities. The only one to emerge unscathed is Kate Hudson, who exhibits qualities she has rarely shown since her breakthrough role in "Almost Famous."Read the full review

Slate | Dana StevensAdd Critic to Favorites

Something about Wilson is just so comfortable, so loose, that he can make the most pointless movie seem, by moments, as if it deserves to exist. But even the presence of the Butterscotch Stallion can't sweeten this bland compendium of rom-com clichés.Read the full review

The New York Times | Manohla DargisAdd Critic to Favorites

A limp attempt to wed a romantic comedy to a buddy comedy, largely because the filmmakers see women as visitors from another planet, which is more or less what they now are in Hollywood.Read the full review

Wall Street Journal | Joe MorgensternAdd Critic to Favorites

Little more than a showcase for Owen Wilson's amiable shtick, and a showcase in the merchandising sense of the term.Read the full review

USA Today | Claudia PuigAdd Critic to Favorites

You, Me and Dupree is a good idea badly executed.Read the full review
