New York Daily News by Jack Mathews
Slackers depends on the pathetic Ethan and the flatulent Sam for most of its laughs, and both characters are more revolting than amusing.
New York Post by Jonathan Foreman
So patchy in its laughs, so calculated in its grossness and so lacking in genuine comic exuberance, it makes you look at "Road Trip" in an admiring new light.
Portland Oregonian by Kim Morgan
A disappointing venture. If only it had been more clever, perhaps darker.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) by Liam Lacey
Before immediately handing the movie an F and sending it off to summer school, give the filmmakers, and especially co-star Jason Schwartzman, credit for their anarchic willingness to try anything to shock a laugh loose from an audience.
TV Guide Magazine by Maitland McDonagh
The gags are familiar collegiate stuff, involving horny young men, horny old whores -- horny young tramps -- silly foreigners, uptight authority figures, homosexuals and sassy fat women.
Film Threat by Michael Dequina
The title not only describes its main characters, but the lazy people behind the camera as well.
San Francisco Chronicle by Mick LaSalle
A discordant comedy that gives bad taste a bad name.
Chicago Sun-Times by Roger Ebert
A dirty movie. Not a sexy, erotic, steamy or even smutty movie, but a just plain dirty movie. It made me feel unclean, and I'm the guy who liked "There's Something About Mary" and both "American Pie" movies.
The New York Times by Stephen Holden
So lazy and slipshod it confuses the mere flashing of kinky soft-core imagery with naughty fun.
A veteran Detective Chief Inspector and his young sergeant investigate murders that shatter the Midsomer community's peace.
Chaos ensues when three kids accidentally unleash a horde of demons from a mysterious hole in their backyard.
Thief. Warrior. Gladiator. King.
Love. Hard to find. Easy to fake.
A poor family lies and schemes their way into the employ of a wealthy household — successfully, but with great consequences.
