FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
This is a different look for him, and I'm fine with what he does, stepping in to a dramatic role. I have issues with this film because it wants to play off that "inspired by a true film" a bit too much.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
This American remake retains many of the elements that made the original such a smash and, as such, proves to be no better or worse than its mildly engaging predecessor.

The most optimistic answer would be that after decades of overuse we're beginning to grow weary of such racist caricatures. Let's hope that's true.

Rating: 7/10 --
The Upside is a career best for Kevin Hart, and combined with the talents of Bryan Cranston, the two of them lift the film up above its standard story of an unlikely friendship to create a genuinely moving viewing experience.

THE UPSIDE is more feel-good drama interrupted by bits of shtick.
Boston Globe
Rating: C- --
A really long messy story that overstays its welcome. While some humor works, it should have committed to being a pure drama or a comedy.
