Despite some funny antics along the way, the viewer feels like an outsider looking in at people who are clearly having more fun than we are watching them.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 11, 2022

Tag's a movie that doesn't want to grow up.

| Feb 11, 2022

A solid source of laughs in a summer that sorely needs them.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 21, 2021

Some of the film is so incredibly stupid, it's funny.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Dec 7, 2020

All I can say is get ready to laugh a whole lot and get a little taste of your childhood thrown back in your face.

The film's ensemble cast couldn't be more wildly different, yet together they seem like something pretty wildly wonderful and funny and endearing.

| Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 25, 2020

[T]hese are some gratingly obnoxious men-children who operate with such a solipsistic bent that they feel more like fodder for satire than buddies to root for.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 24, 2020

It may not be the funniest comedy, or the most insightful when it delves into the dynamics of male camaraderie, but there's just enough joy going on here to satisfy our need for entertainment.

| Original Score: B | Jul 9, 2020

[B]eing hell-bent on not getting tagged really kills the joy and spontaneity that enable the best bits and jokes of the film.

| Jul 1, 2020

I don't mean to oversell Tag as some masterstroke of comedy, but if you bother to dig a little deeper into the beating hearts underneath the big game being played, there's something quite charming and touching happening.

| Jun 15, 2020

A great R-rated romp about friends staying together through thick and thin.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Jan 10, 2020

The conceit of a game of tag could have easily run out of steam before the final credits, but this movie keeps it going with fervor due to its strong characters, adroit physical comedy, and shrewd lessons about putting away childish things.

If not being funny was this alleged comedy's only crime, I may have left the cinema as a normal person, rather than the rage-engulfed madwoman I was.

| Original Score: .5/5 | Sep 17, 2019

A hit-and-miss comedy with, perhaps surprisingly, more hits than misses.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 18, 2019

The nuttiest truth about director Jeff Tomsic's comedy is that it's based on a group of actual childhood friends who've played "the coolest game ever" for 30 years.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 7, 2019

Big stars, high concepts, low humour and a waste of time. and talent.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 4, 2019

Tag is one of those rare comedies where the jokes land more often than they don't and there is genuine heart behind all of the humor.

| Original Score: 8.5/10 | May 15, 2019

For a movie based on both a fantastical story and a joyous childhood activity, the wit and whimsy is sadly too sporadic

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 1, 2019

From a nostalgia standpoint, Tag is perfectly poised to bring in parents who are already lamenting a summer spent on phones and iPads, but as a buddy movie it fails to connect.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Apr 16, 2019

Knockabout comedy Tag won't be for everyone, but its raucous silliness is good fun if it finds you in the right mood.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 22, 2019
