- 50The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Liam LaceyThe Globe and Mail (Toronto)Liam LaceyThe movie is sentimental and reliant on bodily-function humour, but it also has a generous spirit, a multicultural rainbow of characters, and a social message about approaching fatherhood responsibly.
- 40VarietyDennis HarveyVarietyDennis HarveyIsn't an embarrassment. Rather, it's an acceptably executed, thoroughly routine time-killer.
- 40Village VoiceVillage VoiceHomies can make good hubbies, goes the moral of this January dump job, a tired send-up of hip-hop-isms that also aspires to be a Waiting to Exhale for men.
- 38New York Daily NewsJack MathewsNew York Daily NewsJack MathewsThere's no story to speak of - three cohabiting bachelors are dragged into adulthood by the simultaneous pregnancies of their girlfriends - but Anderson, Imperioli and Eddie Griffin are amiable company and there's an earned laugh here and there.
- 30The New York TimesDana StevensThe New York TimesDana StevensHaving established its premise and set in motion an overloaded plot, the picture lurches this way and that, evoking more restlessness than laughter and more boredom than pathos.
- 30TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghTV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghAs to the dream sequence featuring Lonnie's and Brandy's trash-talking babies, it's just creepy.
- 30Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasLos Angeles TimesKevin ThomasA tedious comedy... It's not the worst premise for humor dashed with a little wisdom, but the script, written by the film's star Eddie Griffin and others, is less than inspired and tends to blur the line between immaturity and just plain stupidity.

- 25New York PostMegan LehmannNew York PostMegan LehmannThe finished product looks like it was thrown together during a lunch break -- by a drunk person. The level of ineptitude on display in this urban version of "Three Men and a Baby" is simply gobsmacking.
- 10The A.V. ClubNathan RabinThe A.V. ClubNathan RabinReflects poorly on everyone, particularly its makers, its stars, and the studio laboring under the delusion that this stuff was worthy of release.
