Nobody's Fool's reviews
Media reviews
Vulture
It?s a mess, whatever it is, but it?s not without its charms.
Los Angeles Times
Even with all of Haddish?s hard work, she still can?t clean up the mess she?s landed in.
Roger Ebert
The bigger sin here is that ?Nobody?s Fool? wastes its comic goodwill and performances by wallowing in the same tired story elements Tyler Perry has been milking on TV and in his movies for decades. He?s done this before, and you?ve seen it before.
New York Times
If the movie?s looseness lets in an excess of dead air, ?Nobody?s Fool? is still dotted with pleasures besides those Haddish brings.
The A.V. Club
when his zany cast of characters (many but not all played by Perry himself) takes leave of his material, as in Nobody?s Fool, his movie?s faults start to look more congruent with less auteur-driven studio comedies.
Variety
In ?Nobody?s Fool,? Tiffany Haddish is just furious and funny enough to make you wish that the rest of the movie wasn?t a droopy romantic comedy without the comedy.
The Hollywood Reporter
Few mainstream romantic comedies are so brazen or as unconvincing in their third acts.
The Wrap
given that this is the auteur?s 20th theatrical feature film, there?s no longer any excuse for the pacing issues, the scenes that don?t end and the general flaccidness of his direction.
