- 91Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanEntertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanHas a fractured fairy-tale charm, even if it isn't a nonstop laugh riot.
- 80Village VoiceMichael AtkinsonVillage VoiceMichael AtkinsonDamon and Kinnear are both pitch-perfect, inhabiting their ingenuous, codependent little universe together with the commitment of eight-year-old best friends. True to form, the Farrellys toss sophomoric spitballs at us, but nothing stems the rise of big-hearted generosity.
- 70NewsweekDavid AnsenNewsweekDavid AnsenWhat first feels like thin skit material gets funnier and sweeter. Damon and Kinnear make a terrific team.
- 70The A.V. ClubScott TobiasThe A.V. ClubScott TobiasThough it's still too reliant on a sloppy, gag-a-second style, Stuck On You gets through the arid stretches by leaning on some winning performances, most notably from a hilarious Seymour Cassel.
- 60The Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenThe Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenWhile it has its moments of pure Farrelly inspiration and swell performances from Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear...the patented blend of the outrageous and the sweet that has become the brothers' trademark struggles to find the desired balance here.
- 60TimeRichard SchickelTimeRichard SchickelThe Farrellys need to remember this: Sappiness is easy, comedy is hard.
- 60Dallas ObserverLuke Y. ThompsonDallas ObserverLuke Y. ThompsonThat sweet streak has grown, like a cancer, and gradually killed off any of the edge their (Farrellys) humor may have once had.
- 50Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittChristian Science MonitorDavid SterrittThe comedy is tooooo loooooong for the two or three jokes it has to play with, and Kinnear does the picture's only three-dimensional acting.
- 40VarietyDavid RooneyVarietyDavid RooneyA one-joke affair about conjoined twins that feels like it bypassed the scripting stage and was filmed directly from the pitch, the comedy remains resoundingly unfunny.
- 40L.A. WeeklyScott FoundasL.A. WeeklyScott FoundasBy the time of its medical-operation climax, Stuck On You has focused so much on ennobling the disabled that it comes to resemble a segment of the Jerry Lewis telethon.
