D+ Boston Globe Ty Burr "...Envy is a weirdly airless disaster..." more... D- Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert "...the movie is funny, yes, but not really funny enough." more... C   Chicago Tribune Mark Caro "Envy is a shaggy dog-poop story that'll make you wish you could spray something at the screen to make it disappear." more... D+ Cincinnati Enquirer Jack Garner "DreamWorks kept Envy on the shelf for a year, waiting for the right time to release the Ben Stiller-Jack Black comedy. There is no such time." more... C- E! Online "Flush the whole thing." more... D   New York Post Jonathan Foreman "...it lurches erratically and joylessly from heavy satire to hokey slapstick, and from sourness to saccharine sweetness." more... C- New York Times Stephen Holden "Barry Levinson's attempt to match the Farrelly Brother in adolescent goofiness has its laughs, but it's really a movie that's afraid of itself." more... C- ReelViews James Berardinelli "It's remarkably appropriate that Envy is about turds, because that's what the movie is." more... D   Rolling Stone Peter Travers "Jack Black, fresh from his triumph in School of Rock, takes a hard fall in this not even half-baked farce..." more... D   San Francisco Chronicle Mick LaSalle "...intermittently too sour and too soft, and it's never really amusing, despite the presence of Jack Black and Ben Stiller." more... C- Seattle Post-Intelligencer William Arnold "...disastrously unfunny." more... D- USA Today Claudia Puig "Although there are a handful of laughs, we long for more, given that the movie boasts Jack Black and Ben Stiller." more... C   * Yahoo!
