Critics Consensus

Much like a preservative-packed toaster pastry, Unfrosted is sweet and colorful, yet it's ultimately an empty experience that may leave the consumer feeling pangs of regret.

Craig Mathieson

The Age (Australia)

Jerry Seinfeld’s debut as a feature film writer and director is a mess. His breakfast pastry-themed 1960s farce plays like he shot every idea he had and made it into a 93-minute movie, regardless of whether they worked together or were particularly funny.

The Nightly (AU)

Unfrosted is silly and dumb, but it’s meant to be silly and dumb. You don’t expect it to take anything seriously and it really, really doesn’t.

Rated: 3/5

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

There's a lot of not terribly funny jokes in this film. A lot of hit and miss, sort of like a Saturday Night Live show where three-out-of-five jokes are vaguely funny and the other two aren't.

Unfrosted feels like a movie no one really asked for, and in many ways, it is precisely that.

Rated: 2.5/5

The jokes aren’t funny, and the cartoonish characters are mostly annoying. It feels like extended Seinfeld bits or SNL skits that don’t quite land. A total waste of all-star-cast.

Rated: 1.5/5

One thing 'Unfrosted' suffers from is the lack of spark needed to make what may be more or less witty on paper work on screen (Full Review in Spanish).

Rated: 5/10

For the all star cast this film has; it is the most unfunny thing I’ve ever had the displeasure of watching.

Unfrosted is non-stop, spot on pop culture references that were hilarious every time! One of the better comedy’s to be released in years. It’s meant to be what it is and succeeds. Light hearted, witty, subtle humor, with top shelf role playing. For all us marketers: Some viewers won’t get the jokes, but if you understand Brand development and especially if enjoy marketing, please watch Unfrosted. Every product team should. Friggin golden.

I thought the movie was hysterical! Entertaining story telling, all star cast, an insurrection. Some laugh out loud things. I'm telling everyone to watch it!

Hilarious must-see. It’s a comedy, not a documentary. The artistic liberty is truly fantastic. The cast is stunning. I couldn’t ask for a more light & cheerful film.

Jerry, what have you done? This is so subpar for you. It doesn't work on so many levels.

If you're over 60 and love the kitsch from your childhood (and Seinfeld) you won't stop laughing.
