Critic Reviews
-
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
This is made-for-TV material dressed up by Eddie Murphy's participation into a theatrical release.
-
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
Even in C-movie junk like this, Murphy manages to wring a few laughs out of the material. But the humor is so broad it barely fits onto the screen.
-
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
Meet Dave alone may not radically change the course of Eddie Murphy's drooping career. But it is, at least, a little olive branch held out to his audience. And that's better than Nil.
-
Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
Dumbfoundingly erratic, for the most part, but smart and funny from time to time, especially when Mr. Murphy, in the pseudo-person of the spaceship, tries to imitate earthling behavior.
-
Claudia Puig, USA Today
The lackluster title hints at the dull, witless and hackneyed story.
