C-
"Plays as a sophomoric exercise in the art of satire."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
1/4
"Director Michel Gondry's satire on the "beast in us all" is too pretentious and tedious for us to take as a wry, frothy entertainment. Despite the overload of quirkiness instilled in Kaufman's spotty script,
Human Nature
is an awkward and tired mes"

"A distinct letdown...Though it wants to be sharp and scintillating, the film is contrived and strangely stodgy instead."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
4/5
"Surreal comedy explores the differences between man and the animals -- and finds humans wanting."
Netflix
James Rocchi
2/4
"Cheap, vulgar dialogue and a plot that crawls along at a snail's pace."
Palo Alto Weekly
Jeanne Aufmuth
9/10
"[Kaufman and Gondry] dive right into the subject [of sex] to lay bare the pain of it, and to have us laugh at it."
Window to the Movies
Jeffrey Chen
2/10
"Although one can appreciate the attempt of trying to be different and give it one's all - at least in theory -- you simply can't enjoy the excruciating experience of watching it repeatedly flop."

"...the movie just seemed to be trying too hard to be something different.."

"Weird and wacky, but what else would you expect from the creators of
Being John Malkovich
?"

"If Kaufman kept Cameron Diaz a prisoner in a cage with her ape, in his latest, he'd have them mate."
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
2.5/5
"Overall the film feels forced and awkward, as though it's trying too hard to be weird, culty and profound."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
3.5/4
"A wild comedy that could only spring from the demented mind of the writer of
Being John Malkovich
."

"Human Nature, in short, isn't nearly as funny as it thinks it is; neither is it as smart."
