Good-natured but prepared with an absence of craft, The Cookout is an unappetizing collection of warmed-over jokes.

Todd's payday apparently sends comedy backward in time, and we're in the 1970s, ethno-sitcom style. September 9, 2004 | Rating: D | Full Review…

The pointlessness of The Cookout exudes a modicum of charm, but the simple-minded mess still lacks the wit and moral weight of an episode of Family Matters. September 7, 2004 | Full Review…

There may be someone in the audience who goes into hysterics at the mere sight of a baby's diaper soaked through with ****, but, if so, I hope never to meet him. September 16, 2005 | Full Review…

Uma "comédia" sem a menor graça que, com seus estereótipos ofensivos a brancos, negros e homossexuais, falha não só do ponto de vista cinematográfico, mas também humano. February 9, 2005 | Rating: 1/5

...a taxing and intolerable vehicle that has all the charm of a gold-toothed rapper's root canal. The Cookout is certainly not any food for thought. January 19, 2005 | Rating: 1/4
