	Media	Author	Review
		Desson Thomson The Washington Post	"Crystal’s deadpan expressions and one liners interlock perfectly with Williams’s multiple personalities and verbal asides"
		Owen Gleiberman Variety	"If Fathers’ Day really had been released in the mid-’80s, I’d have said it was so funny I forgot to laugh"
		Mike Clark USA Today	"No masterpiece but undeniably heavy on laughs"
		Bob McCabe Empire	"A very text-book example of two actors better than the material, Crystal and Williams do their best but can't elevate this far"
		Keith Phipps AV Club	"A comedy starring two reputedly hilarious people who don't make you laugh once"
		Janet Maslin The New York Times	"Not surprisingly, there are some slow patches and formulaic touches, but that's a fair trade for the fun of watching Mr. Williams and Mr. Crystal make an irresistible comic team"
