Susan Stark, Detroit News: Read more
Tom Maurstad, Dallas Morning News: Anyone not committed to cheap crude humor may find The Animal more creepy than funny. Read more
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star: A lunkheaded, sorta gross-out comedy that manages to be likeable and funny. Read more
Stephen Holden, New York Times: Its relative modesty lends Mr. Schneider's deft, ingenuous performance an unexpected glow of innocence. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: An outrageous and imaginative summer comedy aimed primarily at young males, but it is often so funny that it may well connect to a broader audience. Read more
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly: A good natured comedy of hormonally charged, down in the mud slapstick. Read more
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail: While it's true that Colleen gets her backside slapped, that her face is licked by Rob Schneider and that he urinates under her chair as a way of marking his territory, it's no worse than what he does to the audience. Read more
Bruce Westbrook, Houston Chronicle: A silly, stupid story with a one-joke comic premise. Read more
Gene Seymour, Newsday: There's a whole lot of stuff like The Animal to the point that there's no longer anything outrageous about its outrageousness. Read more
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com: Neither as bad as it might be nor as entertaining as it should be. Read more
Wesley Morris, San Francisco Chronicle: Let's hear it for stupendously dumb screen writing. Read more
Susan Wloszczyna, USA Today: This may be giving Schneider too much credit, but the lad has found a way to temporarily halt the de-evolution of the silly comedy. Read more
Robert Koehler, Variety: The Animal is never more nor less than stupid, but stupid in ways that deliver goofiness rather than rampant humiliation. Read more
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post: Schneider manages to make it all more palatable than nauseating, genial rather than an affront to good taste. Read more
Megan Rosenfeld, Washington Post: If I had a mob, I'd send it after the yo-yos at Columbia Pictures who gave this pu-pu platter the green light. Read more
