The New York Times
One way to end the scourge of "TV is better than film" articles is to stop making movies like "Keeping Up With the Joneses," a pedestrian comedy that almost seems intended as evidence for the cause.

The Guardian
The leads huff and puff accordingly, but Michael LeSieur's dull-edged script squanders their timing, more concerned with reducing the actresses to their lingerie than with raising anything other than the occasional snicker.

Stuff
There are sporadic moments of promise... but mostly, this middle-class farce fails to fire.

New York Post
"Joneses" never really upends its initial premise, which is that impossibly good-looking people are cooler than the rest of us. That's not comedy, that's Us Weekly.

Empire Magazine
An unfortunate misfire that has the odd moment of charm and the odder chuckle, but otherwise isn’t worth keeping up with.
