70% of critics gave this film a positive review and considered it to be highly entertaining and extremely funny. Where as other critics such as Margaret Pomeranz called the characters 'gormless' and said she gave the movie 1 star generously. I think this movie was so successful due to the fans of the comedy series and it gained most of its viewers because of this and they may have recommended it to others.
