Nothing [the couples] can say or do can make me care whether they stay together or split up or turn gay.
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post

The whole thing is too big, too loud, too expensive and has too much Diane Keaton.
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post

Town & Country is no Ishtar, but it's no Shampoo either.
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star

Bland, disjointed and becomes increasingly bizarre as the film progresses.
