Evan Almighty Ratings & Reviews
Film.com
Jonathan F. Richards
Evan Almighty belongs to that sorry cinema subgenre, Comedy without the Funny Bits.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
Evan Almighty simplistically preaches the value of faith, and its overriding belief is that beneficial societal and familial change can stem from "one act of random kindness."
New York Press
Eric Kohn
Evan Almighty strains consistently to pave the way for topical humor, yet lacks inspired comedic charm and a cogent message.
Village Voice
Robert Wilonsky
This is PG-rated proselytizing tinged with Al Gore self-righteousness, all with the narrative thrust of a film about the apocalypse starring Kirk Cameron.
UGO
Brian Tallerico
It's like a lazy summer day - too light and inconsequential to really get excited about, but you have to be pretty cranky to complain too loudly.
Slate
Dana Stevens
This is the Old Testament minus the wrath, divine retribution as chicken soup for the soul -- where's the fun in that?
USA Today
Claudia Puig
It's an almighty, humorless bore.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Evan Almighty in which Steve Carell is commanded by God (Morgan Freeman) to build an ark, is a movie far less interesting than its premise.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
This film is to faith what a box of animal crackers is to nature.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
[Kids] will enjoy the animal antics best, especially when the critters start doing their part to help build the ark. Parents will have to settle for the few inspired bits by Carell, stuck with the Job-like task of keeping this leaky bucket afloat.
Denver Post
Michael Booth
Here's the funniest thing: In trying desperately to reconnect with religious Americans, Hollywood assumes religious Americans are so dumb they'll laugh at anything.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
Evan Almighty combines the easiest elements of lazy comedy with the most indulgent elements of lazy disaster movies. Even Mr. Carell, gamely mugging and wincing and snaring the random reflex laugh, gets pulled down with the ship.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Evan Almighty is a paper-thin alleged comedy with a laugh drought of biblical proportions, and a condescendingly simplistic spiritual message. It is so bad, I came close to throwing my caffeinated beverage at the screen.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
Shockingly, this flood is less an allergic reaction to any global catastrophe and more the result of what happens when a studio has too much cash to blow on a wild effects sequence.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
Offers an inoffensive message of conservationism and family togetherness, leavened by bestiary slapstick. Harmless, diverting, very mildly uplifting … [but] bland, generic and unchallenging.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
More, while I certainly don't have a problem with the strong pro-environment message and the heartwarming morals at the center of the Baxter family's struggles, I can't help but think there are better ways to push them over on an audience than this.
Los Angeles Times
Carina Chocano
Evan Almighty hasn't quite decided what it wants to be, and you get the feeling that if it weren't for another amazing arc -- Carell's recent career trajectory -- it wouldn't exist at all.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
The sum effect is mild yet strange, lacking both the zing of smart comedy and the cohesion of sensible plotting.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
For a movie that's supposed to be about reconnecting with God and ourselves, and cherishing the Earth we live on, Evan Almighty is a surprisingly dispassionate picture.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
God is played, once again, by Morgan Freeman, whose suave charm can sell all sorts of silliness, but not the amiable imbecility peddled by this film.
