- 90New York Magazine (Vulture)David EdelsteinNew York Magazine (Vulture)David EdelsteinOutrageously entertaining.
- 80EmpireEmpireEntertainment that tickles the justice-for-all glands.
- 80The Hollywood ReporterThe Hollywood ReporterThis movie is a hoot, and a pertinent one at that.
- 80Village VoiceJ. HobermanVillage VoiceJ. HobermanMainly, Fix the World is about the beauty of the riff. The Yes Men are funniest when addressing a straight audience, making outlandish claims in favor of the free market and the benefits of unregulated catastrophe--the Black Plague gave us capitalism!
- 75New York PostV.A. MusettoNew York PostV.A. MusettoHilarious.
- 75New Orleans Times-PicayuneMike ScottNew Orleans Times-PicayuneMike ScottIt's provocative stuff, and The Yes Men approach it with a wicked sense of humor.
- 70VarietyVarietyFinds its titular merry pranksters up to yet more capitalist-critiquing chicanery and fat-cat-fooling fun.
- 70The New York TimesStephen HoldenThe New York TimesStephen HoldenIf the Yes Men’s antics have a lot in common with the stunts of Sacha Baron Cohen and Michael Moore, they are executed more in the spirit of dry amusement than as showboating, gotcha moments.
- 60Time OutStephen GarrettTime OutStephen GarrettGod bless their antics, but the Yes Men’s jestful jousting feels more like tilting at windmills
- 50The A.V. ClubNathan RabinThe A.V. ClubNathan RabinGiven the duo’s withering take on capitalism, it’s ironic that their stumbling second feature feels throughout like an infomercial for a shtick whose expiration date is rapidly approaching.
