Critic Reviews of "The Cable Guy"
Chicago ReaderJuly 28, 2009It's a fairly interesting effort -- much more ambitious than most Carrey vehicles.
TIME MagazineJuly 27, 2009Aiming, perhaps, for a neat double helix of black humor and prankishness, they've ended up with a pretty ugly granny knot.
VarietyMarch 26, 2009While some of its antic set pieces are genuinely funny, this fuzzy-focus outing is hopelessly disconnected and ultimately unsatisfying.
San Francisco ChronicleJune 18, 2002Much of it plays like a personal boob tube with Carrey trapped inside, determined to act his way out in a freak show of mugging. He's a disturbing mixture of psychopath and lonely soul. Here, as always, a little Carrey goes a long way.
Rolling StoneMay 12, 2001Carrey runs riot, and Stiller won't stop him.
Reel Film ReviewsFebruary 26, 2016...a sporadically engaging yet often misguided thriller that passes the time well enough, admittedly, but accomplishes little else.
Common Sense MediaDecember 18, 2010A twisted comedy about TV addiction. Teens OK.
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsNovember 14, 2009The writer and director can't keep pace with the dark places Carrey takes the script.
City Pages, Minneapolis/St. PaulAugust 20, 2009The Cable Guy is certainly a cautionary tale, but not about the dangers of TV.
TV GuideJuly 27, 2009In all, about a third of the film (most of it contained in three extended sequences) is audaciously funny and genuinely disturbing. The rest will sorely test the devotion of Carrey's fans.
