Reaction: While the numbers are low for a Judd Apatow film, historically speaking, the film actually managed pretty strong numbers given the combination of genres and the lack of proven stars.
"Like other Judd Apatow films projects, the film is way too long and far more enamored with its characters than the audience ever is. Tiffany Haddish's Sade might be the most annoying film character since George Lucas gifted the world Jar Jar Binks." - Mark Plainsview, ReelViews
"Much like its title character Story of Sade is well-meaning, but overly aggressive and ultimately unlikable. The set-up of the film is never explained, nor is it explained why a woman, clearly in her 30's, is moving into a house with the other, younger women. The lack of details like these make the film a distracting, unorganized viewing experience." - Reggie Dunn, Sacramento Bee
"Emma Watson and Selena Gomez are good in their supporting roles, even if they feel mostly wasted in the parts. Aside from them, internet personality Trisha Paytas and the professionally hot Charlotte McKinney do not fare so well, as neither have the dramatic or comedic chops to carry their characters. Haddish does what she can out of the grating main role, but it isn't enough to get the character beyond bothersome." - Clark Davis, JoBlo.com
Rated R for strong language, sexual content, drug references and some violence.
