UHF Ratings & Reviews
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
It is entertaining and funny enough to ensure the video satirist an encore performance as a small-town bungler named George Newman.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
The film largely works because of Yankovic's personality and because of the parodies.
Common Sense Media
Brian Costello
Goofy '80s comedy is still funny but has dated stereotypes.
Under the Radar
Austin Trunick
The individual parts may be greater than the sum of the whole, but man, are those parts funny.
The Dissolve
Noel Murray
It's agreeably goofy, and it feels like something anyone could do, even if that's not the case.
Cinema Crazed
Felix Vasquez Jr.
Weird Al's film hasn't aged a bit...
BrianOrndorf.com
Brian Orndorf
Has everything but the kitchen sink, and while it doesn't always hit the sweetest notes of inspiration, it maintains a lovable spiritedness and offers the odd gut-buster. And dumb guy humor. UHF has some of the best dumb guy humor around.
Kansas City Kansan
Steve Crum
Forgettable Weird Al starrer...enUHF, please!
Nolan's Pop Culture Review
Michael A. Smith
"Today, we're teaching poodles how to fly!" Michael Richards is hilarious.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Watchably amusing, nothing more.
ComingSoon.net
Luke Y. Thompson
UHF is pretty much exactly what one should expect a Weird Al movie to be. It's funny, charming, mildly weird, and while it may wear out its welcome for some after a couple of viewings, transcends being a mere parody just enough to stay interesting.

Caffeinated Clint
Weird Al again proves himself the king of skit, spoof and everything in between
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This is the dreariest comedy in many a month, a depressing slog through recycled comic formulas.
