It comes with a superficially sunny sitcom adorableness that ... mixes well with Rudnick's smart, scathing, urban and very dark one-liners.

Reviews for Jeffrey
If nothing else, Rudnick and director Christopher Ashley know how to keep the audience off balance and in stitches.

Top CriticIt's more a series of sketches and momentary inspirations than a story that grows interesting.
01/01/00
Top CriticIt's not a total bust, and some of the performances are charming, but it never matches the gleeful, irreverent mischief it had on stage.
06/18/02
Top CriticSome of this is amusing but most simply isn't funny enough to support off-the-wall antics laced with poignancy.
01/01/00
While this may sound intriguing, the picture merely jumps around clumsily from incident to incident.

Top CriticIf you think Priest got people's dander up, Jeffrey will have them running for their Saturday night specials, snickersnees, and heart pills.
04/23/02
A clever, biting and funny movie about gay love in the age of AIDS.
01/01/00
As written by Paul Rudnick (Premiere's Libby Gelman-Waxner), this is a mildly amusing but unsuccessful vignettish attempt to make a gay comedy about AIDS in which the characters' exuality is outfront, exuberant, and unapologetic.
08/10/06
A warm and humorous -- as well as a sad and moving -- exploration of all-too-human relationships.
06/05/02
Warm and witty, but short on stamina.
01/01/00
Wildly uneven, and it aims at the lowest common denominator in its exceedingly broad comedy.
02/13/01
Top CriticRudnick, adapting his off-Broadway hit, deftly blends uproarious fun and touching gravity.
05/12/01
Top CriticA charming, proudly old-fashioned screwball comedy.
