Critic Reviews:

• " It's a film that is constantly flirting with the idea that it's going to be something truly special and it just never gets there. " – Richard Propes

• " The plotline is simple and flexible enough to allow for lots of hilarious detours. " – Emily Rems

• " [Something] in Tammy you wouldn't expect to see in a mainstream comedy [is] the romantic pairing of McCarthy with indie heartthrob Mark Duplass, reversing the formula of the male slob who gets the conventionally beautiful girl. " – Jake Wilson
