Critic Reviews
-
Jason Di Rosso, MovieTime, ABC Radio National
This is the stuff of classic comedy (of a certain type), but the film completely fails in its attempt to make anyone endearing or remotely likable.
-
Leigh Paatsch, Herald Sun (Australia)
It doesn't matter if you get Big Mamma's Boy confused with Martin Lawrence's terrible Big Momma's House franchise. The overall outcome for this cringe-inducing comedy is about the same.
-
David Stratton, At the Movies (Australia)
If the script is thin and the direction routine, at least many of the performances are engaging, even though there's nothing very subtle in what they're called upon to do.
-
Jarrod Walker, FILMINK (Australia)
While director Franco Di Chiera seems desperate to make the comedy work, it never does due to a derivative script and stilted performances.
-
Sandra Hall, Sydney Morning Herald
As for Lotito, he plays every scene as if it's another stand-up routine. He's yet to become acquainted with the news that movies are all about connection.
