San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleJul 7, 2016
Comedy is getting more and more nasty and more and more funny. But it’s hard to imagine any movie more nasty-funny than Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates. Read full review

New York Daily NewsEdward DouglasJul 5, 2016
As dumb as "Mike and Dave" can get, it's a surprisingly fun summer comedy and icing on the (wedding) cake for fans of the raunchiest of humor. Read full review

The GuardianJordan HoffmanJul 5, 2016
Plaza has found her Ron Burgundy: the vessel of a true imbecile in which to pour her strange genius. Read full review

Chicago Sun-TimesBill ZweckerJul 7, 2016
This is not great moviemaking by any stretch of the imagination, but the spot-on comic timing of the principals here — especially former “Parks and Recreation” star Plaza — captured my funny bone and kept it happily working overtime from start to finish. Read full review

Entertainment WeeklyLeah GreenblattJul 7, 2016
Efron and Devine are an endearingly loony duo, and as much as Plaza and Kendrick never quite sell their vixen shtick, the supporting cast is wickedly stacked. It’s like riding a roller coaster fueled by Red Bull and grain alcohol: kind of gross but pretty fun, too. Read full review

New York PostKyle SmithJul 7, 2016
As filthy as the back of a sanitation truck — but it has heart, too. Most of the comedy is funny, some of it is hilarious. Read full review

IndieWireDavid EhrlichJul 5, 2016
Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates may not be the first Apatow-era comedy about twentysomethings coming to grips with the fact that they won’t live forever (and it’s certainly not the deepest, as it lingers in your memory for about as long as a Snapchat), but it might just be one of the funniest.

VarietyOwen GleibermanJul 5, 2016
What’s funny and winning about Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates is that it’s a comedy of equal-opportunity raunch, where everyone in sight is right at home inside the animal house. Read full review

The A.V. ClubJesse HassengerJul 6, 2016
There’s something liberating about a comedy where all four central characters f--k up with such youthful bravado. Read full review

Rolling StonePeter TraversJul 8, 2016
It's a bummer that the jokes don't land often enough, especially in the final third when the tone takes a turn for the tame. WTF!?! Read full review

Philadelphia InquirerMolly EichelJul 7, 2016
It wants to be "Wedding Crashers," but it's not nearly as memorable, smart, or sweet. Read full review

Washington PostStephanie MerryJul 7, 2016
Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates is uproarious and flamboyantly raunchy, utterly stupid yet also occasionally winning Read full review

Movie NationRoger MooreJul 6, 2016
The girls go wild and they make “Mike and Dave” as nasty as they wanna be, and a pleasant, pervy surprise of a summer comedy. Read full review

Slant MagazineEric HendersonJul 5, 2016
Much like with Neighbors 2, Mike and Dave’s obvious ace in the hole is its commitment to gender parity. Read full review
