Leave your thoughts about Kiss Me, Guido.
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyThis minor indie farce plays gay and Italian-American stereotypical characters, resulting in a pleasant feel-good movie but no more. |
| San Francisco ChronicleEdward GuthmannIt's a bouncy, occasionally awkward diversion with sharply written characters and good actors. |
| The New York TimesElvis MitchellManages to have playful comic ingenuity of its own. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyA bright, snappy culture-clash farce in the mode of "Desperately Seeking Susan" and its ilk, Kiss Me, Guido plays gay and Italian-American stereotypes against one another to good-natured, crowd-pleasing results. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliA clunky script that reduces the characters to one-dimensional stereotypes. |
| Entertainment WeeklyTy BurrIf writer-director Tony Vitale ladles on the cliches with extra sauce, Guido still has a hey-Ma-I'm-makin'-a-movie enthusiasm that's more infectious than it has a right to be. |
| About.comFred TopelDisappointing indie comedy. One joke that's not even that funny the first time. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasIf Tony Vitale's Kiss Me, Guido isn't quite the laff riot its trailer suggests, it nonetheless abounds in good-hearted humor, adding up to a perfectly pleasant summer diversion. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertA movie with a lot of funny one-liners, but no place to go with them. |
| TV Guide MagazineKen FoxClumsy and amateurish. But it's also occasionally quite charming, and ultimately more commendable for what it ISN'T than worthy of censure for being nothing more than an inconsequential comedy. |
