The New York TimesAmy NicholsonMay 2, 2024
The jokes spill forth so fast that there’s no time for the shtick to get soggy. Read full review

Total FilmKate StablesMay 2, 2024
A deliciously silly, spoofy tale of the 60s battle for breakfast domination, filled with high-fructose fun. Read full review

ConsequenceLiz Shannon MillerMay 3, 2024
It feels like a true labor of love, someone having a good time with funny people making something truly absurd. Read full review

VarietyOwen GleibermanMay 6, 2024
While broadly based in reality, the entire movie is a put-on, a wackazoid tall tale, a comedy that uses the breakfast wars as the jumping-off point for a high-camp exercise in nostalgic lunacy. Read full review

Movie NationRoger MooreMay 6, 2024
Yes, most every joke churned out here has a “low hanging fruit” or “fruit food colored” air about it. But Gaffigan, Schumer, McCarthy, Grant and most everybody here has a chance to score. And so they do. Read full review

Unfrosted may be the Platonic ideal of the Netflix movie: ephemeral, edible, enjoyable, forgettable. Read full review
