Film ThreatRick HongApr 6, 2026
Grabsinski doesn’t waste the audience’s time with all the nuances of how the time machine works. He just gets to the story, the purpose of why Nick uses it, and the fun, crazy antics that come from it. Read full review

Boston GlobeOdie HendersonMar 26, 2026
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice is full of crazy ideas, but its most daring leap occurs when Grabinski’s screenplay finds room for an investigation into the feelings of its characters. The film takes the time for everyone to get personal and emotional gripes off their chests, and does so in such earnest fashion that it balances out the absurdity. Read full review

ColliderRoss BonaimeMar 26, 2026
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice is a ridiculous adventure that is constantly surprising, unexpectedly touching, and truly hilarious. Read full review

Screen DailyRobert DanielsMar 16, 2026
BenDavid Grabinski’s time-twisty, sci-fi gangster comedy Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice is brimming with hair-brained schemes and hilarious gags; the kind of unruly one night adventure that isn’t about logic, it’s about stoking delirium. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterAngie HanMar 16, 2026
A sci-fi-action-comedy-thriller loaded with zippy style, upbeat humor and sneaky heart. Read full review

VarietyStephen SaitoMar 16, 2026
With its many references, Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice takes a cue from its lead character Nick, who sees the past as something to build on rather than recycle, and ends up delivering quite a good time. Read full review

Original-CinKaren GordonMar 27, 2026
The scenes feel like they've come straight out of 1970s and 80s B-comedies, outdated and out of step with the main plot, which feels richer in comparison. It’s distracting enough to slow the movie down. Read full review

The Travers TakePeter TraversMar 27, 2026
This shamelessly silly crowd-pleaser has an extra 'Nick' and a double comic dose of Vince Vaughn and a knack for springing surprises that you don’t see coming. Read full review

USA TodayBrian TruittMar 25, 2026
Alongside the bullets and the one-liners, “Mike & Nick” doesn’t completely make the most of its time-travel premise. But it’s forgivable considering a story full of colorful personalities and the sneakily heartwarming theme of finding empathy and understanding. Read full review

RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoMar 19, 2026
Everyone here understands how to thread that needle of being broadly goofy while also keeping the film from turning into a parody. It’s a comedy that’s consistently displays its eccentric personality but rarely feels like it’s desperately pushing a punchline for a laugh. Read full review

New York Magazine (Vulture)Bilge EbiriMar 27, 2026
The surprises are mostly in the details. Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice is bursting with ideas that feel like clever marginalia on an otherwise familiar setup. Read full review

Next Best PictureGiovanni LagoMar 16, 2026
Grabinski’s joke-a-minute approach is instantly injected with the melding of genres that Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice embraces throughout its gut-busting runtime, reminding audiences why comedies of this vein are becoming a dying breed and that Vince Vaughn, when he wants to be, remains one of the more reliable comedic presences working today.

PolygonJake KleinmanMar 31, 2026
While Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice isn’t a bad movie, it’s not a very smart one. Constant plot recapping aside, this is a quick-moving comedy with plenty to enjoy. Read full review

IndieWireKatie RifeMar 16, 2026
Grabinski’s writing style is goofy and (obviously) reference-heavy, and the jokes spray indiscriminately like so many bullets from an automatic weapon. The constant wisecracks get tiresome after a while, but not before introducing some clever gags and quotable quips. Read full review

Slant MagazineJustin ClarkMar 26, 2026
BenDavid Grabinski’s film is less of a crime drama than a punch-drunk comedy of errors. Read full review

The Associated PressLindsey BahrMar 25, 2026
Ultimately “Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice” has a few good laughs, some inspired needle drops, quirky references and a go-for-broke energy that should make it an enjoyable, low-stakes click. Read full review

TheWrapZachary LeeMar 24, 2026
One of the keys to executing a high-concept premise is knowing when to show restraint, when to say no to an impulse for something aesthetically “cool” if it means crafting a more compelling narrative. That subtlety is in frustratingly short supply here. Read full review

The A.V. ClubJesse HassengerMar 26, 2026
Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice practically warns the audience against taking it too seriously, even while talking out the other side of its mouth about its own heartfelt themes. Read full review

Frankly, I’d begin with having future me warn the present-day version to skip this. Read full review
