It's a farce about loss, and it doesn't flinch.
Michael Atkinson, Village Voice

I think if you're going to have a David Hasselhoff type of character and you're going to have the flatulence type of humor, then just go in that direction. Don't try to put in all this sappy stuff.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
Rotten
A domestic tragedy masquerading as a frothy frolic.

The jokes don't come frequently enough in Click, and aren't all that funny.
