January 17, 2010A decent rom-com with a quite a few good laughs, a bit different to most. Jack Black is quite a funny guy and the main theme of him seeing the inner beauty only while all around him wonder what is going on is a good comedy angle.

June 14, 2008very funny film about a guy (Jack) who is only attracted to good looking girls but they never like him. He is hypnotized in to believing ugly girls are beautiful He falls for Gwyneth and not of his friends understand what has changed him.

March 1, 2008Farrelly Brothers rely too much on stereotypes as jokes kind of like they did in "The Ringer". Still appreciate using Charlotte as the film setting.

September 28, 2007OK well even though it has a moral Jack Black isn't as funny as everyone would like to think he is and I don't like how it sort of picks on the heavier people in the world.

All this sweet, inoffensive stuff is actually pretty boring. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
May be the best Farrellys movie yet, even though it doesn't live up to the pair's usual level of uproarious, crass comic genius. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Often very funny, but it is also surprisingly moving at times. full review
November 8, 2001
A.O. Scott, The New York Times
There are enough moments of demented comedy to make you aspirate your popcorn, but by the end you may find yourself, with some amazement, sniffing back tears. full review
