- 80New York Daily NewsEdward DouglasNew York Daily NewsEdward DouglasAs dumb as "Mike and Dave" can get, it's a surprisingly fun summer comedy and icing on the (wedding) cake for fans of the raunchiest of humor.
- 75IndieWireDavid EhrlichIndieWireDavid EhrlichMike and Dave Need Wedding Dates may not be the first Apatow-era comedy about twentysomethings coming to grips with the fact that they won’t live forever (and it’s certainly not the deepest, as it lingers in your memory for about as long as a Snapchat), but it might just be one of the funniest.
- 70VarietyOwen GleibermanVarietyOwen GleibermanWhat’s funny and winning about Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates is that it’s a comedy of equal-opportunity raunch, where everyone in sight is right at home inside the animal house.
- 63Slant MagazineEric HendersonSlant MagazineEric HendersonMuch like with Neighbors 2, Mike and Dave’s obvious ace in the hole is its commitment to gender parity.
- 63Movie NationRoger MooreMovie NationRoger MooreThe girls go wild and they make “Mike and Dave” as nasty as they wanna be, and a pleasant, pervy surprise of a summer comedy.
- 50The Hollywood ReporterTodd McCarthyThe Hollywood ReporterTodd McCarthyMike and Dave Need Wedding Dates rates medium on the grossness scale (an all-body, pre-marital naked-Indian-guru-administered massage for the bride with a happy ending, anyone?), and pretty high in crude talk. But it's kind of a dud when it comes to endurance and imaginative moves.
- 42ConsequenceClint WorthingtonConsequenceClint WorthingtonIt’s a frustrating experience; a lot of the individual gags work quite well, but they never build to anything cohesive.
- 40Screen DailyTim GriersonScreen DailyTim GriersonThere’s very little that’s shocking — and not nearly enough that is funny — about this romantic comedy.
- 20TheWrapRobert AbeleTheWrapRobert AbeleBuilt on a shaky comic premise based on a real Craigslist ad posted by a pair of party animals — and smacked to life with relentlessly feeble, dopey improvisation and unoriginal crudity — “Mike and Dave” is more likely to tarnish its cast’s comedy-chops goodwill than to foster a desire to see any more raunch-till-you-drop yukfests.
