The worst. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com
Hit & Run as a whole is one of the summer's most enjoyable surprises, a consistently disarming romantic comedy... Glenn Kenny-MSN Movies
Hit & Run is awfully hit & miss. Rick Groen-Globe and Mail
Shepard and Palmer just don't do anything terribly exciting with the film's vehicles, drawn mostly from Shepard's personal collection. Lou Lumenick-New York Post
It feels like writer, co-director and star Dax Shepard has unleashed some kind of freakish Franken-film on movie-goers. Stephanie Merry-Washington Post
Hit and Run lures you in with its jackalope rhythms. There's nothing else like it on the current landscape. Stephanie Zacharek-NPR
A pointless and humor-free affair. Phil Villarreal-OK! Magazine
Hit and Run has a bouncy, goofy charm. CJ Johnson-ABC Radio (Australia)
It's 'Smokey and the Bandit' as conceived by a Quentin Tarantino wannabe. Jeffrey Westhoff-Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)
It's highly entertaining with cameos by several of the director's pals and pit stops for delivering sub-Tarantino dialogue. Philip French-Observer [UK]
There is a lot of boring Clarksonian chatter about motorcars, but, inhibited by a modest budget, the stunts prove to be depressingly unspectacular. Donald Clarke-Irish Times
Audiences out for a bit of mindless fun will probably enjoy this raucous road movie, but only if they can look past comedy that relies on jokes about racism, sexism and homophobia. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com
The film's characterisation is hopelessly underdeveloped and an undercurrent of homophobia does little to make the experience any less tedious. Adam Smith-Radio Times
For a comedy the laughs are hard to find. Alex Zane-Sun Online
It's amiable, but the more miles it clocks up, the more this film looks like a vanity vehicle for its co-director, writer and star, Dax Shepard. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
This whipsmart postmodern rom-com caper rides a fine line between road - and date - movie. Anton Bitel-Little White Lies
Shepard's script suggests his chief pleasures in life are driving sports cars and joshing about homosexuals, and those of a similar mindset may manage to wring out more amusement from his film than I did. Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph
Hit and Run is certainly hit and miss, but it had just about won me over by the time it ended. Roz Laws-Birmingham Post
Enjoyable, fast-paced comedy-thriller with well written characters, decent chase sequences, a frequently funny script and superb performances from Shepard, Bell and Bradley Cooper. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon
Dumb, noisy and not half as cool as it thinks it is, it's like being caught in a shouting match between half-cut rednecks at a Nascar meet. Elliott Noble-Sky Movies
A good-natured, if inconsequential, thrill ride. Shepard more than proves he's up to the task when it come to multitasking. It will be interesting to see what he does next time around. Adam Lowes-HeyUGuys
More hit and miss. Siobhan Synnot-Scotsman
There's the suggestion of a good comedy filmmaker here, but in trying out too many genres in one film Shepard winds up with something that never settles or fully engages. Olly Richards-Empire Magazine
While Shepard deserves credit for pulling the whole thing together, Hit & Run is an uneven action-comedy which isn't particularly exciting or funny. Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor
Shoot-outs, lovers on the lam, a villain with dreadlocks: yes, this hit-and miss comedy sure does want to be True Romance. Neil Smith-Total Film
If you're a fan of the leads, the movie will deliver the charm but for hardcore fans of action comedy, this will more likely be a 'hit it and forget it' experience. Kofi Outlaw-ScreenRant
