The movie's story is conventional in shape, but it has passages of crazy exhilaration and brilliant invention.

Making Aldous regret his wicked ways is a buzz-kill of major proportions.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

This is Brand's movie all the way: he's the one snorting the drugs, throwing the tantrums and getting the lion's share of the laughs.
Tom Huddleston, Time Out
Fresh
Brand can seem simultaneously randy and strung-out and is often very funny. Hill is surprisingly touching, which is quite a feat given the number of orifices he is required to display.
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor

Cheerfully profane in the manner of a dormitory bull session.
