The three move through a faded deck of cliches ... with a convincing impression of having fun, helped along by a snazzy '60s-'70s soundtrack and bit-part fillips.

Here's a rule of thumb: If the coincidences in your movie have longer odds than Carrot Top perfecting cold fusion, you might be straining the old believability factor.
Bill Muller, Arizona Republic
Rotten
It takes a truly awful motion picture to nullify the considerable appeal of Lee, Stiles, and Blair, but A Guy Thing has what it takes.
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Rotten
[Tries] desperately to lower the bar for scatological gags, rank sexual humor and cheap physical shots.
