Bride Hard: reviews

What the critics say average 3.0 from 13 outlets

• 7.5 Roger EbertCarla Renata “Bride Hard” makes it easy to grab your girls, some snacks (or drinks), and enjoy a little fluffy fun at the cinema. Read
• 6.7 Original-CinJohn Kirk Like every cringeworthy wedding you’ve ever attended, it leaves one with a lukewarm smile, and the hope that the time invested in witnessing this spectacle of forced happiness will be appreciated. Read
• 6.0 VarietyCourtney Howard Once all the toasts are made and the rice is tossed, “Bride Hard” proves an entertaining marriage of something borrowed (the plot) and something blue (some of the jokes). Read
• 4.0 ColliderIsabella Soares Despite Rebel Wilson's signature comedy and her reunion with Pitch Perfect co-star Anna Camp, there is little that can justify an audience member giving this film a chance. Read

• 1.0 Screen RantBen Sherlock We’re only halfway through the year, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Bride Hard ends up being the worst movie of 2025. Read

• 0.0 Associated PressMark Kennedy “Bride Hard” — which combines thrusting male strippers dressed as Vikings as well as deadly automatic weapon fire — isn’t funny or thrilling.
