The Guardian
(A) laboured, self-conscious and unrelaxed satire... Dr. Strangelove it ain't.

Don't Look Up
Academy Award-winners Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Cate Blanchett and Meryl Streep lead this grim comedy from Adam McKay (The Big Short) about a media tour trying to get the word out that a comet will hit Earth.
However, the two low-level astronomers are finding it increasingly difficult to convince the public of this extinction-sized event. Even worse, the disaster is only six months away. The absolutely stacked cast also includes Chris Evans, Timothée Chalamet, Jonah Hill, Ron Perlman, Ariana Grande, Tenet's Himesh Patel, Castle Rock star Melanie Lynskey and (perhaps most surprising) Matthew Perry.

Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, and a galaxy full of stars are dulled by a witless satire...

These scenes would be funnier if they were more incisively written (or at least more cleverly improvised)...

Bleak, knowing and hilarious, Don't Look Up is unerringly on the nose.

The Globe and Mail
Don’t Look Up is too busy shouting to be funny, but thank goodness for Jonah Hill.

A.V. Club
(Don't Look Up) repeatedly blunts the impact of its satire by calling its shots early, often, and loudly.
