The result is an ill-defined set of scene premises that don’t cohere into something more than the sum of its parts and in fact, as it wears on, becomes less than those moments. Read full review

It’s no classic—it fails to develop many of its most promising themes and ends just when it’s really starting to cook—but it’s clever, sincere, and genuinely funny, and will be endlessly rewatchable to anyone that clicks with it. Read full review

Screen RantAlex HarrisonJun 26, 2026
Aside from the raunchy or gross-out set pieces, which are hit-and-miss, the movie rides the same few jokes all the way to their natural conclusions, before then trying to tap into the "heart" at the center of its story and completely throwing off its tone. In the end, I think I spent less time laughing than I did waiting for the film to be over. Read full review

That Cena and André are so good together is all the more striking in a movie that affords them such infrequent overlap. Read full review

The GuardianBenjamin LeeJun 25, 2026
I found a few moments here lightly amusing . . . but it’s largely, disappointingly short on real laughs, a panicked maximalism to its bawdiness replacing anything more smart and thought through. Read full review

Little Brother runs a familiar comedy playbook, but the peaks of Eric André disasters overcome the valleys. Read full review
