The Greatest Beer Run Ever | Ratings & Reviews

"I started to wonder if this film wasn’t made just so people would be nicer to Farrelly’s last movie by comparison."

RogerEbert.comRogerEbert.com

"(It) commits itself to regurgitating every Vietnam cliché with the laziest possible visual diction, led by an emotionally overextended Zac Efron."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"The film maintains an ambiguous, seriocomic tone, mingling sombre moments with touches of farce..."

The AgeThe Age

"Shaggily appealing..."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"The intentions and performances are irrefutably sincere and noble. The execution almost always feels a little bit forced and a little bit false."

Chicago Sun-TimesChicago Sun-Times

"(Crowe's) seriousness and professionalism inadvertently play almost as a rebuke of the entire movie."

San Francisco ChronicleSan Francisco Chronicle

"(A) half-baked shocker..."

The TimesThe Times

"With such a cliché-laden script, the actors get lost completely."

A.V. ClubA.V. Club

"(Efron) does bring some dimension to the character, even as the picture fails to live up to his performance."

VultureVulture

"The film doesn’t have the detail or imagination to fill in the gaps of a well-worn story with anything convincing."

Little White LiesLittle White Lies

"(The film is) a little like its protagonist: slightly misguided, but ultimately hard to resent."

Empire MagazineEmpire Magazine

"The Greatest Beer Run Ever is at its best early on, buoyed by Chickie’s unbelievable exploits. The truth hurts it."

Slant MagazineSlant Magazine

"Of the locals, only one, a traffic cop played by Kevin Tran, is given even the barest outline of a character."

Screen DailyScreen Daily

"The Greatest Beer Run Ever lumbers and meanders... (it) is only half-interesting and rather slipshod."

VarietyVariety

"The didacticism keeps dragging down whatever energy the movie attempts to muster."
