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

Seemingly assembled from ideas on the cutting-room floor of a cancelled sitcom.
This is one dull party.
Rivera and a host of screenwriters were apparently as cowed by Lady Em as Todd; she sucks up much of the screen time, and admirable though her family values may be, they're not exactly rip-roaring funny.
Todd's payday apparently sends comedy backward in time, and we're in the 1970s, ethno-sitcom style.
A painfully unfunny, would-be comedy.
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.
Avoid this gross, raunchy comedy at all costs.
The very definition of an easy target--and, in all fairness, it deserves every last bit of criticism.
Director Lance Rivera has never directed a movie before, and he doesn't start here.
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.
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.
...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.
The laughs were lukewarm
