Variety

While some of its antic set pieces are genuinely funny, this fuzzy-focus outing is hopelessly disconnected and ultimately unsatisfying.

City Pages, Minneapolis/St. Paul

The Cable Guy is certainly a cautionary tale, but not about the dangers of TV.

Reel Film Reviews

...a sporadically engaging yet often misguided thriller that passes the time well enough, admittedly, but accomplishes little else.

TIME Magazine

Aiming, perhaps, for a neat double helix of black humor and prankishness, they've ended up with a pretty ugly granny knot.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews

The writer and director can't keep pace with the dark places Carrey takes the script.

Rolling Stone

Carrey runs riot, and Stiller won't stop him.

Three Movie Buffs

One of the most underrated comedies of all time.

Time Out

Stiller's film ranks as an honourable failure.

San Francisco Chronicle

Much of it plays like a personal boob tube with Carrey trapped inside, determined to act his way out in a freak show of mugging. He's a disturbing mixture of psychopath and lonely soul. Here, as always, a little Carrey goes a long way.

TV Guide

In all, about a third of the film (most of it contained in three extended sequences) is audaciously funny and genuinely disturbing. The rest will sorely test the devotion of Carrey's fans.

Common Sense Media

A twisted comedy about TV addiction. Teens OK.

Chicago Reader

It's a fairly interesting effort -- much more ambitious than most Carrey vehicles.
