Atom User Reviews for Mack & Rita
Enjoyable chick-flick comedy with a good morale and a great cast! Mildly suggestive comments in one scene, but clean entertainment overall.
Worst movie we’ve seen in a long…I was hoping to laugh a lot but it was sad. Not good acting for Diane Keaton…
Watched it with my wife. She loved it I didn’t.
Bad acting
Not worth the time or money. Slow and predictable script. Acting was subpar.
Metacritic
Aselton has a light touch as a director, and she wisely trots out an all-star parade of comedy heavyweights to distract from the script issues.
Directed with some unexpected beats by Katie Aselton, the comedy captures a bit of the esprit de girlfriends of HBO’s “Insecure,” but borrows too giddily from the Nancy Meyers rom-com catalog of upscale homes.
Maybe if “Rita” had been forced into more bachelorette weekend antics with Paige, bubbly Aimee Carrero and Addie Weyrich, the strain of trying to keep up, comically, with Keaton wouldn’t have been so obvious. As it is, “Mack Rita” is a criminal waste of seasoned comic talent and a criminal misuse of some of the most beautiful Hollywood starlets coming up behind them.
