Critics were harsh on “Bride Wars,” calling it a lazy and underwritten comedy that shaped up to be an impossible acting exercise for its leads.  “There’s more cheer to be gained from staring outside at a bleak and desolate winterscape in the twilight of a shortened day than paying good money to endure this example of cinematic offal,” James Berardinelli wrote for Reel Views.

 A deluge of reviews agreed that formulaic storytelling was just one of the film’s many technical faults.  “Lighting, camerawork, and editing are all a slapdash mess, one that further hinders the actors trying their best to get through this failed hookup of a comedy,” Lisa Schwarzbaum wrote for Entertainment Weekly.

 Critics adored Sedaris and Colbert in the lead roles but felt like they were underserved by a middling plot.  “Some things were meant to be seen in small doses or on small screens,” Bruce Westbrook wrote for the Houston Chronicle. “For all its subversive perks and quirks, ‘Strangers’ is one of them.
