(1 - 28) of 28 OFCS Rating: 7% Rotten Page   1   "Guru Pitka, as portrayed by Mike Myers, stoops about as low as any movie character I've ever seen in order to get laughs."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker 1.5/5 "Somewhere, sitting in a room cluttered with Mr. Pibb cans and half-consumed bags of Funyuns is the adolescent writing staff responsible for The Love Guru"   Filmcritic.com   Bill Gibron C "We get it, Mike: testicles are hilarious. Move on, please."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf 1/10 "Both frantic and tedious, The Love Guru piles on the slapdash offenses."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 2/5 "For his transgressions, Mike Myers will be reincarnated as a dung beetle."   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger 2/5 "These are the sort of things that make you giggle at three in the morning, but you don't put them in your movie. Not if you want your movie to not suck."   eFilmCritic.com   David Cornelius 2/4 "A fairly pedestrian, slap-dash piece of work but the tone is so light and goofy that it's difficult to imagine anyone getting offended by its onslaught of bathroom humor, penis gags, midget jokes, elephant sex, and Hindu-flavored satire."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman B- "Believe me, I'm as surprised as you are that I wound up sort of enjoying it."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider C- "The film has no discernible rhythm, little in the way of wit, and the plot plays like Myers considered it an unpleasant obligation."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov 1/4 "The Love Guru is creatively awful. The feeling you derive from this dud is comparable to swallowing a bottle of bulky Viagra pills while nursing an inflamed strep throat."   Movie Eye   Frank Ochieng D "It took Mike Myers five years to come up with this?"   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek "A messy movie filled with too much juvenile humor."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 2.5/4 "The frustrating thing about the movie is that it contains moment of comedy that verge on inspired, but they are too infrequent to justify the running length."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 1/4 "If Mike Myers is obsessed with poop, pee and penises, that's his problem; if audiences make him rich for playing that out on-screen, then it becomes ours."   Cinematical   James Rocchi 1.5/4 "This half-baked attempt to create a feature film around a riff on Deepak Chopra finds Mike Myers lost in Powers."   Big Picture Big Sound   Joe Lozito 3/10 "...fairly mindless stuff that may appeal to die-hard Myers fans."   DVDTown.com   John J. Puccio 1.5/4.0 "Mike Myers' latest character "Guru Pitka" borders on self-parody: a lovable clown peddling services of questionable value in a quest for self-fulfillment."   MovieCrypt.com   Kevin A. Ranson 3/4 "Mike Myers is so spirited, good-natured and clearly having a blast being a goofball that it's almost impossible not to be won over."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest "[I]sn't merely endlessly crude: it's also dishonest and contemptuous of itself..."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 1/4 "Perhaps Myers was so enchanted by his own desire to bring spiritualism to the masses that he forgot to actually bring the funny with it. Whatever the case, this is a shockingly laugh-free motion picture."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan C- "Non-stop naughty-body-part references with a level of humor more appropriate on a 4th grade bathroom wall than a Hollywood screenplay."   Beliefnet   Nell Minow 2/4 "Under a new name and equally aggressive ethnic branding, Austin Powers is alive again."   Slant Magazine   Paul Schrodt 1/5 "Myers approaches the material along the lines of a nine-year-old child who has just heard his first dirty jokes and will not rest until he has made sure that he has repeated them to everyone he knows."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 2/5 "Most jokes are centred around either genitalia or that Austin Powers-style of wink-nudge faux sexuality, which doesn't work at all with this character."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline "The picture, written by Myers and Graham Gordy and directed by Marco Schnabel (no relation to Julian), is listless and pokey, chiefly because watching Myers in this particular guise is almost completely joyless."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek 2/10 "This feeble spoof of self-help spiritualism is atrocious and inanely tedious."   SSG Syndicate   Susan Granger 2/10 "Despite its already toxic reputation, it has probably 12 or 18 gags that really work...[but] while some of the jokes click, most of the jokes that fail, fail apocalyptically."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton 0/4 "Thus Myers marries his two passions (hockey and not being funny) into one noxious ball."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw  (1 - 28) of 28 OFCS Rating: 7% Rotten Page   1
