"Raunchy dialogue and sexually explicit sequences overshadow the film's slight hint that factors other than sex might also be important in human relationships."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Betty Jo Tucker
3.5/5
"It's a collection of guy humor, no more and no less."
NutzWorld
Blake French
"The penis jokes become increasingly tedious."

Cynthia Fuchs

2.5/4
"The misunderstandings are all thankfully low on the "Three's Company" scale while Hartnett and Sossamon's chemistry is undeniably potent."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez

"An entertaining sex farce."

1.5/4
"It’s just a shame that someone wasted their fluids creating a number of the people responsible for this absolute mess."

C-
"40 Days and 40 Nights is raunchy, and graphic, and sometimes even funny, but its attitude makes it a difficult film to enjoy."
Film Blather

"A remarkably sniggering, tawdry sex comedy...so gross and smutty that perhaps a trenchcoat should be required apparel for every audience member."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
2/4
"This is as stupid as movies come."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
2.5/4
"it is essentially a slightly more mature gross-out comedy"
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
3/4
"Sex is the star here, and she shines."
Palo Alto Weekly
Jeanne Aufmuth
4/10
"Finds a way to present a light-hearted sexual comic fairy tale, then derails itself with bad romantic comedy fallbacks."
Window to the Movies
Jeffrey Chen

"A fairly perfunctory sex comedy, which is too bad because the premise is amusing."
Matinee Magazine
Jeremiah Kipp
4/10
"Wears out its welcome and ability to milk its premise long before its runtime is done."
Screen It!
Jim Judy
7/10
"It's obvious that director Michael Lehmann wanted to have a good time with this film, and I for one, enjoyed it on that level."
JoBlo's Movie Emporium
JoBlo
4/10
"The movie reminded me of a beer commercial during a football game, with about as much depth but not nearly the wit."
DVDTown.com
John J. Puccio
2/4
"Not the funniest film ever on this subject, but a nice statement and satire on relationships today."

"plays like a teen sex comedy filtered through the relative sophistication of urban twentysomething hi-tech workers"
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
1.5/4
"A dulling experience. The movie screams been there, done that and offers nothing new to the table."
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
"A cheap movie, false and phony, that thinks it’s about moving beyond cheapness and phoniness."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
3/4
"For all its outrageous humor,
40 Days and 40 Nights
actually has something to say about the value of emotional intimacy over physical intimacy."
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
3/5
"This is a very raunchy and explicit comedy but it is all done with sweetness and even a certain humility that keeps it from being too disgusting."
Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Nell Minow

"less than I had hoped for...but just about what I had expected."
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
3/5
"There’s certainly a place for lightweight-yet-entertaining romantic piffle, and 40 Days and 40 Nights most assuredly qualifies as that."

"Screenwriter Rob Perez knows as much about both self-discipline and Catholicism as I know about echocardiography."
Eclipse Magazine
