Envy crawls to its finish through a minefield of poor taste and comedic misfires.
Anthony Breznican, Associated Press
Rotten
Ultimately more amusing than hilarious, and sometimes less than that.
J. Hoberman, Village Voice
Rotten
... one of the worst comedies I've ever seen.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
Rotten
For an alleged comedy with such star power, Envy reeks enough to wish there was a vaporizer that would make it magically disappear.
