Man Trouble Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
A stunning disappointment considering the talent involved.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
A jaw-dropping Hollywood disaster of Hudson Hawk proportions.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Desmond Ryan
There was reportedly a great deal of argument and dissent during the making of the film, and it is reflected in its erratic tone and slovenly, indecisive and increasingly incoherent narrative.
Los Angeles Times
Michael Wilmington
It's a lazy-looking movie, amiable and smart, but so fuzzy, in its imagery and structure, that it suggests the sun is getting to everybody, that they all need a dip in the pool.
Christian Science Monitor
David Sterritt
Two capable stars, Jack Nicholson and Ellen Barkin, lose their luster in this misfired comedy.
Chicago Tribune
Johanna Steinmetz
Rafelson, an accomplished screenwriter, seems unable, or unwilling, to give any shape to this mess.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
This is actually a pretty clever idea, and it's certainly ambitious -- too ambitious.
TV Guide
Man Trouble is abysmally amateurish from start to finish, never making any kind of sense on any level at any time during its running time.
People Magazine
This is all the sadder since director Bob Rafelson, screenwriter Carole Eastman and Nicholson were the moving forces behind Five Easy Pieces, one of the best movies of the early '70s.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Candice Russell
Any comedy with Jack Nicholson has automatically got to be great, right? Think again.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
The movie is a limp comedy of disempowerment, set in a cartoon world where testosterone rules.
Variety
Lawrence Cohn
Jack Nicholson fans should feel cheated by Man Trouble, an insultingly trivial star vehicle.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
This romantic comedy is a bow wow.
KPBS.org
Beth Accomando
A sad reunion for director Bob Rafelson and actor Jack Nicholson, considering their brilliant collaboration on Five Easy Pieces.
Nitrate Online
Dan Lybarger
A forgetable romantic comedy where Nicholson tries to coast on his bad boy charm.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
A film that can't find much deadpan wit in a scene pairing Mr. Mazursky and Mr. Nicholson is indeed a study in missed opportunities.
Austin Chronicle
Kathleen Maher
I wouldn't deny anyone the pleasure of watching these people work even if I don't have a clue what they're up to here.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
The movie is certainly original. No other film has ever flirted with so many formulas and genres and failed so completely to (a) parody their conventions or (b) execute them with some degree of skill or design.
