 "The one-liners are snappy, the situations volatile and the comic opportunities richly rewarded."
-- The Wolf, IOFILM.CO.UK
"In my opinion, Analyze That is not as funny or entertaining as Analyze This, but it is a respectable sequel."
-- Staci Layne Wilson, FANTASTICA DAILY
 "To say Analyze That is De Niro's best film since Meet the Parents sums up the sad state of his recent career."
-- Jeffrey Westhoff, NORTHWEST HERALD (CRYSTAL LAKE, IL)
"You see Robert De Niro singing - and dancing to - West Side Story show tunes. Choose your reaction: A.) That sure is funny! B.) That sure is pathetic!"
-- Phil Villarreal, ARIZONA DAILY STAR
"Not only are the film's Sopranos gags incredibly dated and unfunny, they also demonstrate how desperate the makers of this 'we're -doing-it-for -the-cash' sequel were."
-- Jeff Vice, DESERET NEWS, SALT LAKE CITY
"For a film about two mismatched buddies, Crystal and De Niro share little screen time and even less chemistry."
-- Catharine Tunnacliffe, EYE WEEKLY
"The movie bounces all over the map."
-- Lawrence Toppman, CHARLOTTE OBSERVER
"It's still formulaic, which is no surprise. But no longer is the film forced to spend endless minutes spelling out a character relationship that we already know simply by looking at the poster."
-- Luke Y. Thompson, DALLAS OBSERVER
"Maybe it's just because this past year has seen the release of some of the worst film comedies in decades ... But honestly, Analyze That really isn't all that bad."
-- Dawn Taylor, PORTLAND TRIBUNE
"All Analyze That proves is that there is really only one movie's worth of decent gags to be gleaned from the premise."
-- Bob Strauss, LOS ANGELES DAILY NEWS
"[Crystal and De Niro] manage to squeeze out some good laughs but not enough to make this silly con job sing."
-- Gerry Shamray, SUN NEWSPAPERS OF CLEVELAND
"Analyze That regurgitates and waters down many of the previous film’s successes, with a few new swings thrown in."
-- Anita Schmaltz, METRO TIMES
"A superfluous sequel...plagued by that old familiar feeling of 'let's get this thing over with': Everyone has shown up at the appointed time and place, but visible enthusiasm is mighty hard to find."
-- James Sanford, KALAMAZOO GAZETTE

"No dia em que aceitou dirigir esta continuação, Harold Ramis deve ter saído da cama com o pé esquerdo. E aqueles que decidiram assistir a este filme também."
-- Pablo Villaca, CINEMA EM CENA
"Same song, second verse, coulda been better, but it coulda been worse."
-- John Venable, SUPERCALA.COM
"Provides the kind of 'laugh therapy' I need from movie comedies -- offbeat humor, amusing characters, and a happy ending. After seeing 'Analyze That,' I feel better already."
-- Betty Jo Tucker, REELTALK MOVIE REVIEWS
"Both stars manage to be funny, but, like the recent I Spy, the star chemistry begs the question of whether random gags add up to a movie."
-- Gary Thompson, PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS
"“Analyze That” is one of those crass, contrived sequels that not only fails on its own, but makes you second-guess your affection for the original."
-- Rob Thomas, CAPITAL TIMES (MADISON, WI)
"A tired, unnecessary retread...a stale copy of a picture that wasn't all that great to begin with."
-- Frank Swietek, ONE GUY'S OPINION
"This idea has lost its originality ... and neither star appears very excited at rehashing what was basically a one-joke picture."
-- David Sterritt, CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR
"A pretty funny movie, with most of the humor coming, as before, from the incongruous but chemically perfect teaming of Crystal and De Niro."
-- Shirley Sealy, FILM JOURNAL INTERNATIONAL
"About as original as a gangster sweating bullets while worrying about a contract on his life."
-- Marc Savlov, AUSTIN CHRONICLE
"While you have to admit it’s semi-amusing to watch Robert DeNiro belt out “When you’re a Jet, you’re a Jet all the way,” it’s equally distasteful to watch him sing the lyrics to “Tonight.”"
-- Audrey Rock-Richardson, TOOELE TRANSCRIPT-BULLETIN (UTAH)

ROTTEN 19%
Avg. Rating: 4.6/10 |
"The screenplay flounders under the weight of too many story lines."
-- Philip Wuntch, DALLAS MORNING NEWS
"Where This was lazy but enjoyable, a formula comedy redeemed by its stars, That is even lazier and far less enjoyable."
-- Michael Wilmington, CHICAGO TRIBUNE
"Your response to its new sequel, Analyze That, may hinge on what you thought of the first film."
-- Bruce Westbrook, HOUSTON CHRONICLE
"Painfully padded."
-- Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE
"Nothing here seems as funny as it did in Analyze This, not even Joe Viterelli as De Niro's right-hand goombah."
-- Charles Taylor, SALON.COM
"Although the level of the comedy declines as the movie proceeds, there's no denying the fun of watching De Niro and Crystal having fun."
-- Susan Stark, DETROIT NEWS
"Just a collection of this and that -- whatever fills time -- with no unified whole."
-- Steven Rosen, DENVER POST
"I can analyze this movie in three words: Thumbs Friggin' Down."
-- Richard Roeper, EBERT & ROEPER
"Possibly not since Grumpy Old Men have I heard a film so solidly connect with one demographic while striking out with another."
-- Carrie Rickey, PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER
"A surprisingly flat retread, hobbled by half-baked setups and sluggish pacing."
-- Michael Rechtshaffen, HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

"Billy Crystal and Robert De Niro sleepwalk through vulgarities in a sequel you can refuse."
-- James Rocchi, NETFLIX
