Peter Travers
In all the ways 'Rough Night' went wrong, 'Girl Trip' goes hilariously right. Regina Hall, Jada Pinkett Smith, Queen Latifah and-yowza!- Tiffany Haddish let laughs bubble out of character instead of blunt-force farce. It makes all the difference.
Julia Cooper
There is no raunchier, more raucous, filthy and truly crass movie out this summer than Girls Trip - and I loved every minute of it.
Adam Graham
The dynamic between the four friends leaps off the screen and makes "Girls Trip" a journey well worth taking.
James Berardinelli
Unfortunately, the jokes stop being funny about 30 minutes before the end credits roll and the character-based elements are never better than overly familiar.
Richard Roeper
Pinkett Smith and Queen Latifah are as reliable as ever onscreen. And Regina Hall gives one of her best performances as Ryan, who keeps on telling everyone you can "have it all" even as her own marriage tells a different story.
Joshua Rothkopf
For some reason with this film, the wildness feels wilder, the vulnerability rawer and the sisterhood stronger.
Susan Wloszczyna
The ladies-on-the-loose comedy that everyone needs right now, even if they don't know it yet.
Scott Tobias
Haddish is so incandescently filthy that a new ratings system should be developed to accommodate her.
Stephanie Merry
"Girls Trip" accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do: shock and amuse. Along the way, it reminds us how important old friends can be.
