What's Your Number? Reviews
Chris Evans can only do so much to save this one.

It's hard to detect, in my eyes at least, anything here that is terribly new or exciting about this movie.
| Jun 8, 2021
Impossibly generic, hopelessly contrived, and formulaic beyond reason.
| Original Score: 4/10 | Nov 30, 2020
The one surefire way that Anna Faris can make sure she dials up Mr. Right is to make sure she never takes him to see this film.
| Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Sep 27, 2020
Neither a strong-enough comedy in its own right, nor is it intelligent-enough to challenge any of the sexual double-standards which it attempts to explore -- in fact, it quite definitely reinforces them.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 1, 2018
Despite being hindered by production values that aren't on par with the on-screen talent, What's Your Number? isn't completely without merit; though with a premise like this, it may have worked better as a sitcom instead of a rushed film.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 20, 2017
A secret genius at work in the stupidity.
| Mar 30, 2017
By trying to remain romantic comedy audience-friendly, it just purees the whole thing into a stew no one would want to eat.
| Original Score: C | Jun 23, 2013
What's Your Number? isn't necessary as a romantic comedy should be. It goes for the cheap way out at every turn and uses Faris as a punching bag for acquiring jokes.
| Original Score: 4/10 | Feb 11, 2013
While Faris is her usual, lovably offbeat self, she ultimately fights a losing battle against formula.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 23, 2012
Ally may start out as your typical bubble-headed man-chasing twenty-something dolt but, thankfully, underneath the surface she turns out to be a heck of a lot more than that.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 27, 2012
Sometimes, underneath a film's 'R' rating for sexual content and foul language, lies a core of sweetness and warmth. Unfortunately, for the unsuspecting viewer who is used to the quality of, say, Judd Apatow comedies, this is not one of those films.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 22, 2011
The film's satirical jabs at people addicted to Facebook and Twitter raises a few smiles in what is otherwise a straight-to-cinemas DVD release.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 18, 2011
Anna Faris and Chris Evans have enough charm to almost pull this off. Almost.
| Original Score: B- | Oct 13, 2011
There is something really attractive about Anna Faris as Ally, she has that mesmerizing mobile mouth that distracts but her presence is actually totally winning. She's a klutz but a loveable one.
Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 12, 2011
Still, it's hard to dislike any vehicle for Faris -- the slob's Marilyn Monroe -- with her gift for dejection and her pliable face, which is like a hastily drawn cartoon.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 12, 2011
If anything, it feels like 'What's Your Number?' is the worst version of what 'Bridesmaids' could have been. It just doesn't heart, and every joke feels completely forced and obvious.
| Original Score: 3/10 | Oct 11, 2011
Fresh, funny and boosted by Anna Faris' superb comedic performance, this raunchy rom-com registers as a surprising delight.
| Oct 11, 2011
The film isn't great, but Faris is.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 11, 2011
Like recent rom-com Friends with Benefits, it's the chemistry of the two leads that keeps it afloat. They just deserve better material to flirt around.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 11, 2011
