Murder Mystery is a satisfying standout, albeit one that exists in a field with a very low bar.

Obviously, getting caught up in a dangerous murder mystery isnt terribly relaxing, so naturally, theres some trouble in paradise.

Aniston and Sandler have a goofy, relaxed rapport that is often amusing despite the films best efforts to smother any sign of verve.

If youve seen an Adam Sandler movie anytime this century, you know what youre getting, and its not interesting or funny.
Cinema Blend
2.0
Murder Mystery is a bland crime comedy that features Sandler on autopilot and struggles to deliver enough thrills to make it a worthwhile endeavor.
Screen Rant

Adam Sandler is a genius, sure. But Id love it if he were to smarten up, too.

The movie isnt awful, just a charmless non starter where the leads cant find enough funny business in the screenplay from the guy who wrote Zodiac.

For something thats top of the landing page, thus doesnt even require thumb movement, Murder Mystery is surprisingly entertaining.

Little grey cells arent required to enjoy this pleasant trip into the comedy mystery genre.

Everything old is new again in this refreshing threequel. Plus you get just enough new characters to add to the fun. Woody and Bo who knew!

But unlike Sandlers more actively loathsome fare Thats My Boy, Dont Mess With the Zohan, Jack and Jill Murder Mystery doesnt inspire ire.
Decider

Capably directed by Kyle Newacheck from a suitably twisty turny script by James Vanderbilt, it serves its purpose as a lighthearted comedy.

Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler are no strangers to comedy, so they try their best. But most of their comic banter falls flat.

With much more tact and good taste than usual, Sandler and company offer a classic criminal comedy.

It is a comedy, of course, but theres a time and a place, and were meant to be rooting for The Spitzes this isnt Fred Wests European Vacation.
