« Cependant, le scénario est informe et les gags outranciers deviennent vite répétitifs. Sean Combs et Rose Byrne volent souvent la vedette aux deux acteurs principaux. »

« En fait, le simple fil conducteur est étiré sur 109 longues minutes où les blagues ont tendance à se répéter inlassablement. Une bien mauvaise idée, surtout que le rythme est déficient et que la mise en scène, extrêmement limitée, ne sait jamais vraiment comment se servir de son agréable trame sonore, qui peut notamment compter sur des airs entraînants de Goldfrapp et de Mars Volta. »

« Comme dans la majorité des productions de Judd Apatow, la qualité des gags varie grandement de l'un à l'autre. Mais au final, Get Him to the Greek est hilarant assez souvent pour valoir le détour. »

« Brand's screen appeal actually came as a significant revelation, because he's frequently just obnoxious and vain, but with some decent writing and a startling amount of performance depth, he delivers a broken rocker's fractured soul to the screen. »

« The fact that much of Greek is funny - crassly funny, sometimes obviously funny - saves it, and may even allow you to forgive its indulgences and sing along to the song about furry walls at the end. »

« The concept is inspired, and the movie has some very funny moments. But about halfway through this long weekend, the frantic tale grows flimsy. The improvisational charm of Russell Brand as Snow becomes as weedily thin as the comic himself. »

« The film's funny and compelling moments are overshadowed by all the raunchiness. »

« Yet "Sarah" director Nick Stoller has mostly pulled it off, capitalizing on the wretched excess the rocker lifestyle embraces to deliver a number of gross-out moments almost worthy of "The Hangover." »

« But Aldous, played by the brilliantly unpredictable Russell Brand, is more than a pop-culture museum piece or a MacGruber-like bit of sketch comedy nonsense. He has feelings, ideas and a dollop of talent to go with the uncontrolled appetites; even though he's narcissistic and self-destructive, he is also kind of fun to hang around with. »
