Variety"Too often, the audience has as much reason as Del and Neal do to wonder where, if anywhere, they are going."

The New York Times
The New York Times"The movies that last, the ones we return to, don't always have lofty themes or Byzantine complexities. Sometimes they last because they are arrows straight to the heart."

Roger Ebert
Roger Ebert"A warm, mature offering from Hughes, with Martin's restraint a perfect counterpoint to Candy's enormous (and enormously amusing) fooling around."
