Desperados is a lot of fun and announces “Saturday Night Live” alum Nasim Pedrad as a comic actress in the tradition of Sandra Bullock. Read full review

It’s imperfect, sometimes frustratingly so, but also just about fun enough for yet another tipsy Friday night locked down indoors, its sun-drenched setting proving alluring and yet cruelly out of reach. Read full review

Maybe Rapoport’s script from way back when was fiercer, sharper, and funnier, and the sands of time have simply eroded any of its interesting edges down to mere nubs of gross-out nothingness. But watching it today on Netflix, it can’t help but feel highly algorithmic. Read full review

Comedy has to be more than just cheap, gross gags that illicit a response steeped in revulsion. It’s got to have a heart. Read full review

Shock value has no value if it’s not shockingly funny. Read full review

Such a comedy cannot depend solely on its supporting cast, especially when they’re tasked with lifting up subpar material. Read full review

Agonizing, blandly shot Desperados, which is among the most abysmal romantic comedies that came out of this century. Read full review

Light hearted, hilarious, relatable. Nasim was very annoying as an actor, it should have been like an Emma Stone, but I looked past it because it was just so funny. Reminded me of my friends. And for all those saying you can recall an email NO YOU CANNOT, only on Gmail, TRUST ME I haveLight hearted, hilarious, relatable.

I thought it was absolutely hilarious. Nasim and Lamorne are the cutest couple and Anna Camp is amazing too. A great girls' trip movie.

honestly we r n 2020 who needs to go and delete and email u can easily recall an email, there was no point n the whole movie and it wasn't funny at all more of a stupid frustrating movie rather than comedy. Nothing like bridesmaid or girls trip just annoying
