      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      The Breaker Upperers brings the laughs early and often, thanks to the dry wit -- and effervescent chemistry -- of writer-director-star duo Jackie van Beek and Madeleine Sami.

      Tomris Laffly RogerEbert.com A marvelously kooky, occasionally laugh-out-loud funny buddy comedy. Rated: 3/4 Feb 15, 2019 Full Review Ben Kenigsberg New York Times "The Breaker Upperers" adds some welcome irreverence to the homogenized mix of Netflix comedies. Feb 15, 2019 Full Review Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times [D]irectors, writers and stars Jackie van Beek and Madeline Sami still give this film a wild energy that's absolutely their own, with jokes that take the audience from giggles to cackles to all-out shrieks. Feb 14, 2019 Full Review Roger Moore Movie Nation Rude and Rowdy Rated: 3/4 May 8, 2023 Full Review Kelechi Ehenulo Confessions From A Geek Mind For a fast-paced comedy, it has the perfect amount of laugh out loud humour which is silly, but simultaneously not afraid to accept and embrace its silliness. Rated: 4/5 Aug 27, 2020 Full Review Yasser Medina Cinefilia The film is slowly marred by a concatenation of cliches that turn off the fun and leave me in a state of apathy towards the characters. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 5/10 Jul 31, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

      Leah W Funny, stupid, and fun! I think the low expectations from the audience ratings led to a feelgood surprise. Really enjoyable! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/24/24 Full Review Jed B Solid comedy that made me laugh Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/18/23 Full Review Gareth v This movie starts off brilliantly but fades as we get towards the end which is a shame. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/22/23 Full Review Tyler K It feels more like a TV show series and I don't think the title deserves to be called the breaker uppers because there isn't much besides the beginning but I did and that is a pretty enjoyable and pretty funny watch 7/10 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/02/22 Full Review Audience Member Two stars who wrote and produced it work incredibly together. Script is fairly tight, I would put only some criticism on some scenes, like the police stripper section, feeling a little crass and unnecessary, as well as the 80s music video sketch. Had me cracking up otherwise. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review ellen hohbach s Funny! Good writing. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
