A one-note comedy that’s sloppily written, poorly acted, and lacks any semblance of an inspired comedic spark.

| Dec 30, 2023

As is typical for an SNL-spawned movie, Treasure meanders. Unusually though, the ratio of jokes to running time remains favorable, even if some of the surprise cameos fail to amaze.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 11, 2023

Their group dynamic needs to figure out how to better distinguish their personas, but they’re also generous in sharing the screen. The funniest role they’ve written here goes to Meg Stalter as a deluded park ranger.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 1, 2023

Unfortunately, Please Don't Destroy's first feature-length film offers a painfully predictable story and fails to elicit almost any laughs.

| Nov 29, 2023

Maybe this film is destined to be a cult classic, or maybe it will be relegated to more streaming platform filler.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Nov 27, 2023

There are some laugh-out-loud moments you won’t be able to resist, but it just gets sloppy in the end

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 27, 2023

[Please Don't Destroy: The Legend of Foggy Mountain] is awkward, ridiculous fun from some fresh voices, and the best SNL-produced comedy to come along in decades.

| Original Score: B | Nov 25, 2023

I mostly found myself giggling through the movie, and I think that’s as much as the creators could hope for from someone who enjoys Please Don’t Destroy in small doses on SNL but isn’t sure their sensibilities translate into a feature film.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 24, 2023

...an entertaining-enough debut for a trio of exceedingly promising comedy stars.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 23, 2023

If anything, it feels apt to refer to The Treasure of Foggy Mountain as their “not ready for primetime” attempt to deliver a feature capitalizing off their chemistry and sense of humor.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Nov 22, 2023

With Please Don't Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain, they toe the line between teen boy humor (fart jokes, vulgar sexual references) and genuine messages about friendship and manhood.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 22, 2023

With their uneven feature vehicle Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain, the three decamp to small-town North Carolina as doofuses far outside showbiz, though “Ben,” “Martin,” and “John” remain suspended in a state of arrested adolescence.

| Nov 20, 2023

“The Treasure of Foggy Mountain,” while having its share of laugh-out-loud moments and trademark bizarre humor, is primarily a lifeless mess, just not really connecting in any meaningful way and often just too silly to function in a movie form.

| Original Score: C- | Nov 18, 2023

Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain has way more laughs than the standard direct-to-streaming comedy, with some gloriously silly running gags and hilarious non sequiturs. But it lacks any real point of view behind that silliness.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Nov 18, 2023

The movie fully embraces how much fun it is to watch people who understand each other on a molecular level.

| Original Score: B- | Nov 18, 2023

While there are plenty of laughs along the trio’s journey, PDD reminds us why it’s been over a decade since the last SNL feature-length project.

| Original Score: 6.9/10 | Nov 18, 2023

There’s obviously some talent at work here, but not much in the way of stretching, and the initial energy and sheer dorkiness doesn’t generate enough laughs to sustain a movie.

| Nov 18, 2023

With incredible performances, high-quality jokes, and ambitious production, the movie is a worthwhile adventure that centers on the value of friendship. In the end, you’re bound to be craving more from the comedy trio!

| Nov 18, 2023

This one is more forgettable than it could have been but also nowhere near the disaster that often comes when members of Lorne Michaels' troupe are allowed out during the day.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 17, 2023

The comedy Please Don't Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain is a hit-or-miss affair, but one that hits slightly more than it misses.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Nov 17, 2023
