Addicted to Fresno Reviews

The movie is a barrel of laughs, and the cast is chock full of comedy royalty.

| Aug 17, 2021

The sisterly bond at the center winds up resonating the most, but it seems problematic when the most memorable parts of a comedy are the unfunny parts.

| Original Score: 5.5/10 | Jun 3, 2019

Often ridiculous, the film has a lot of ingredients but lacks the right recipe.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 2, 2019

Judy Greer and Natasha Lyonne have great chemistry ... but the plot is thin and meanders about ...

| Original Score: 6/10 | Nov 2, 2018

Greer's character ultimately gives the audience too little to root for.

| Aug 29, 2016

In Addicted to Fresno, it feels like the film's action relies on the audience rooting for Greer's character, but Babbit's characterisation doesn't offer much to root for.

| Original Score: Not Recommended | Mar 2, 2016

Perhaps in other hands Fresno could have been a hilarious dark comedy , but instead Jamie Babbit and Karey Dornetto have made a chronically unfunny farce, harsh and offensive in its tone, inexcusably laughing at those who are worse off than themselves.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 26, 2016

The colour is off and the setting is snark but the high energy levels and great performances win you over.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 14, 2015

Naff jokes about rape, the Holocaust, and the wretchedness of Fresno leave laughter in short supply as the shrieky action pinballs self-consciously from barmitzvahs to pet cemeteries.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 11, 2015

There's a mean-spirited tone to the screenplay, which can't reconcile its broad slapstick antics with attempts at deeper emotional resonance.

| Oct 9, 2015

Greer is hilarious.

| Oct 9, 2015

Dark comedy about sex, death is edgy but not funny.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 9, 2015

An edgy, daring and often tasteless comedy.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 8, 2015

Though Karey Dornetto's slaloming screenplay can feel self-conscious about pushing the taste envelope, it offers the leads a useful showcase ...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 8, 2015

Movies rarely need to be made shorter. Addicted to Fresno effortlessly proves that most of them could stand to be longer.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Oct 7, 2015

"Addicted to Fresno" should be good, or at the very least, enjoyably off kilter. Sadly, save for a few inspired moments (usually at the expense of the city of Fresno), Jamie Babbit's screwball comedy is cringe-inducing and unfunny.

| Original Score: D+ | Oct 3, 2015

"Addicted to Fresno" is such a mean-spirited, dull and silly movie that it buries its talented cast under the weight of a horrendous script that they can't possibly redeem.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 2, 2015

The laughs are mild, but at least some exist.

| Oct 1, 2015

"Addicted to Fresno" is one of those comedies that seem not to care whether you laugh. Parts of it seem openly hostile to the idea.

| Oct 1, 2015

It's a buddy comedy in which women get to behave as badly as men usually get to. That right there - that's progress.
