"...a witless homage to the 'Saw' franchise and its ilk.... If you've never seen or heard of reality television, this film may indeed blow your mind with its on-the-nose moralizing..." |

"...the film's ending is unforgivably, inexplicably lame. I really couldn't believe it, and neither could anyone else in the theater." |

"I have zero reservations about telling you how much I loathed 'New Year's Eve,' a soul-sucking monument to Hollywood greed and saccharine holiday culture." |

"...lame.... in a culture where shows like 'Modern Family' are wildly popular, a dud like 'Babymakers' doesn't even find sticking power in its offensiveness." |

"By the time we arrive at the finger-chopping, the brutal rape and the pooping on the floor for spite (really), you may sympathize with Milo Ventimiglia's plea to 'Shoot me!' " |

"Playing like a big-screen adaptation of an Andy Rooney rant, the movie bravely takes on the scourge of today's wimp-ified parenting.... Hilarious!... Lunacy!" |

"...a risible attempt to bank on 'Twilight's' Kellan Lutz's fan following. His love interest? Why, that would be Ashley Greene, another second-stringer from the vamp franchise." |

"...stale... devolves into way too many quirky subplots involving a Mohawked rebel, a nerdy girl with a leg brace, a Goth lesbian schoolteacher, a pot-smoking preacher..." |

"...starts out promisingly, but squanders its girl-power capital... lays the groundwork for a subversive female buddy flick, yet fails to make either woman particularly likable." |

"Unpleasant as it is, you can't exactly call Adam Sherman's perspective misogynistic, if only because the protagonist hates himself every bit as much." |
