Leave your thoughts about The Ten.
| Filmcritic.comChris Cabina foul-mouthed, dirty-as-diapers, Republican-baiting retelling of the Ten Commandments |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyThis anthology promises to be wild and blasphemous, but only three episodes are funny or witty (the usual problem with compilations); the all-star cast, particularly Paul Rudd and Winona Ryder, is good. |
| CinematicalScott WeinbergI discovered a solid handful of worthwhile chuckles in the flick, most of which came from the smoothly reliable Paul Rudd and the still-adorable Winona Ryder. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekApart from an occasional bright line and amusing throwaway bits of business, the humor here is juvenile and flat...The Ten is at best a five. |
| ColeSmithey.comCole SmitheyIn spite of its shortcomings, "The Ten" is an inspired and imaginative bellwether for where modern American comic sensibilities lay at the moment. It pushes the envelope in all of the right ways. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongThe Ten is nowhere near a 10. Let's call it a six. |
| KPBS.orgBeth AccomandoThe Ten commits the mortal sin of comedy, it's simply not funny. It thinks that just being crude or extreme is enough to merit the label of comedy. |
| Orlando WeeklyJason FergusonAs ridiculous as it is uproariously funny. |
| TheMovieChicks.comCherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann PaloneYeah we liked this movie (with our self-proclaimed warped senses of humor), but we KNOW it's not for everyone, so thou shalt not blame us if you don't enjoy it as much as we did. |
| Arkansas Democrat-GazettePhilip MartinOne guesses the talent that signed up for this negligible movie did so out of good will for Wain and Marino. Or maybe they all did it ... as a goof. |
