The A.V. ClubSean O'Neal
A film becomes a comfort-food favorite because it moves along briskly, has a few solid gags, and maintains a distinct yet uniformly agreeable tone throughout. And the more memorably high-concept its plot, the better. Real Men falls squarely within this category. Read full review

The Associated PressRobert Dvorchak
Real Men is a far-out farce about male bonding and role reversals that sinks under the weight of its own absurdity. [16 Jun 1988]

Miami HeraldBill Cosford
Real Men is too goofy for its own good, but not nearly funny enough. [21 Oct 1987, p.D5]

The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Rick Groen
Non-existent direction, inane plot, inflated acting. [30 Sep 1987]
