Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 1/5 --
A lumbering mess in which [Klass] has somehow trapped several recognizable actors.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
Like Lloyd, who plays the clinic's leading loon, "Excuse Me" is much more about making fun than making sense.

Newsday
No strand of Excuse Me for Living's frantic, unfunny, and pseudo-thoughtful narrative is well conceived.

Rating: 1/5 --
Atrocious dreck that feels sitcomish, only without the polish or panache.

New York Daily News
A catchy but irrelevant title is the first of many problems with Excuse Me for Living, which throws together a lot of superficially flashy elements that never gel in any organic way.
Variety
Rating: 2/4 --
Is it a comedy if the audience laughs or is it a comedy if laughs were intended, irrespective of whether they're generated? "Excuse Me for Living" qualifies under the second definition.

Rating: 1/5 --
Vaguely misogynistic and defiantly paternalistic, the movie fails at nearly everything - comic tone, sex gags, charm, logic, direction of actors ...

Product Description:
A drug-addicted medical-school dropout finds his life of privilege crumbling when he is sent to rehab following an attempted suicide, and he reluctantly agrees to join a seniors' group for men in order to avoid incarceration. Dan Topler (Tom Pelphrey) loves drugs. In fact, he enjoys them so much that he recently ceased studying to become a doctor so he could devote more time to getting high. But somewhere along the line it all went wrong, and Dan found himself atop the George Washington Bridge preparing to take the final plunge. Fortunately, he was talked down instead, and wound up in the care of Dr. Jacob Bernstein (Robert Vaughn). A veteran psychiatrist at a posh rehab clinic, Dr. Bernstein tells Dan he can avoid jail time if he agrees to participate in the seniors' group that he leads at his local temple. Initially resentful that he has to interact with grumpy geriatrics, Dan eventually warms to the men in the group while struggling with the impulse to relapse. Later, after falling hard for Dr. Bernstein's daughter Laura (Melissa Archer), the former addict decides to turn his life around and take something valuable away from the time he's spent in the company of older -- and wiser -- men.
