| TheLoop21.comKam WilliamsA ROFL treasure hunt which unfolds like an inner-city variation of It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. What more can you ask for from a ghetto-fabulous, escapist fantasy? |
| Screen It!Jim JudyIt's just additional proof that those responsible for such horrible films need to win the lottery so that they'll stop subjecting the masses to such offensive and not particularly funny material. (Parental Review also Available) |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekMostly mistakes frenzy for fun and too often opts for jarring bits of violence...isn't a complete loser, but at best delivers a modest payoff rather than a big jackpot. |
| Metro Times (Detroit, MI)Corey HallDroll but tepid urban-kid-hits-lotto comedy |
| The A.V. ClubNathan RabinLottery Ticket gets far on the strength of its star's charisma and a likeable tone. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael PhillipsThis movie's good. It's fast, deftly paced and funny. |
| Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)John BeifussThe filmmkers work to make the setting a complicated and relatively convincing place, for all its sitcom-ish aspects, and they treat their characters with affection and respect. |
| Kansas City StarLoey LockerbyWhile the film starts strong, it suffers from diminishing returns. |
| I.E. WeeklyAmy NicholsonThere are enough stereotypes in here to get Dr. Laura frothing at the mouth -- and enough menace to merit co-writing credit for the Hughes brothers. |
| Cleveland Plain DealerClint O'ConnorThe premise has potential but the execution is wobbly. At least Mike Epps is funny as a reverend seeking earthly rewards. |
