Rotten
"Addicted to Fresno" is such a mean-spirited, dull and silly movie that it buries its talented cast under the weight of a horrendous script that they can't possibly redeem.

The laughs are mild, but at least some exist.
Tricia Olszewski, TheWrap
Rotten
"Addicted to Fresno" is one of those comedies that seem not to care whether you laugh. Parts of it seem openly hostile to the idea.
Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
Fresh
Strong lead performances and an energetic supporting cast elevate the uneven material.
Alan Zilberman, Washington Post
Rotten
Beyond a few nice closing emotional beats, the whole enterprise plays too desperate and slapdash to whip up the goodwill required to sell such thin, far-fetched material.
Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times
