Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune: Robin Williams is such a great comic virtuoso that it can almost hurt to see him straining to pump life into a conventional, uninspired, sometimes-goofy big-studio comedy such as RV. Read more
Judy Chia Hui Hsu, Seattle Times: Even if you survive the barrage of recycled jokes, after watching this film, you'll never want to go RVing. Read more
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: RV is a horrible movie about horrible people, and just because they call it a comedy doesn't mean we have to play along. Read more
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper: I think at this point somebody needs to tell Robin Williams that the whole white-guy hip-hop routine was played out around 1997. Read more
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: A few bumps in the road, but overall it's an acceptable Big Dumb Summer Movie. Read more
Keith Phipps, AV Club: Yes, it's another overworked-dad- learns-not- to-neglect- his-kids movie. Read more
Bill Muller, Arizona Republic: By not going for every laugh and trying to steal every scene, Williams allows RV to cruise along smoothly. Read more
Ty Burr, Boston Globe: RV has teeth -- more teeth than the last few Steve Martin films, anyway -- but it's terrified to bite down, knowing that the paying audience would feel it more than anyone. Read more
Kevin Crust, Los Angeles Times: A barely concealed rip-off of National Lampoon's Vacation, this Barry Sonnenfeld-directed, Robin Williams-starring misfire spits out one failed gag after another as it tries to disguise its lack of originality. Read more
Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle: Who recommended RV to Robin Williams is among the film's many mysteries. Why he took the role is another. Read more
Michael Booth, Denver Post: RV begins with promising sarcasm and biting laughs, then slips the emergency brake and careens downhill into a forgettable montage of manufactured crises and teachable moments. Read more
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: Outsized huckster idiocy... Read more
John Monaghan, Detroit Free Press: Stranded in this movie wasteland, you have to have fun with what you've got. Read more
Philip Wuntch, Dallas Morning News: You know what to expect from a Robin Williams vehicle. R.V. is better than what you expect. Read more
John Patterson, L.A. Weekly: In RV, the downwardly spiraling career trajectories of Robin Williams and director Barry Sonnenfeld intertwine like the ropes of a tangled parachute. Read more
Jami Bernard, New York Daily News: Had director Barry Sonnenfeld spent more time on sing-alongs and barbecues with the two families and less on Bob's punishing job and bad driving, RV might have gotten more happy campers. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: Cheesy, sappy, full of obvious slapstick and the odd Robin Williams power-improv -- it's National Lampoon's Vacation without the stupidity or the Chevy Chase. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: Considering all the movies not being shown to critics this year, why did the studio choose this one to subject us to? Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: There is nothing I much disliked but little to really recommend. Read more
Grady Hendrix, Slate: RV is another disturbing entry in the dark cycle of movies that began for Robin Williams with One Hour Photo and Insomnia. I look forward with queasy dread to what he'll do in Mrs. Doubtfire 2. Read more
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: It's painful to see Williams, a famously inventive cutup, stuck in a film that finds humor in a man covered in liquid poo or clinging to the windshield wipers of a runaway vehicle. There already is an actor for such roles and his name is Tim Allen. Read more
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail: For Robin Williams, once a gifted comedian and an actor who tried hard, it's come to this: RV, one of those Hapless-Dad-Takes-the-Family-on-Vacation movies. Read more
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star: While there's certain promise to a comedy about a family that's almost utterly loathesome (it worked for the Addamses, didn't it?) it's necessary that the movie think so, too. Read more
Justin Chang, Variety: RV works up an ingratiating sweetness that partially compensates for its blunt predictability and meager laughs. Read more
Jordan Harper, Village Voice: A workmanlike family comedy with enough pratfalls and poo jokes for tykes and enough sentimentality for parents. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: Which one of these levers do you push to send the RV careering off the mountain for good? Read more
