Mr. Murphy chews the scenery every chance he gets and it recalls what made him such a star in the first place.

This is enjoyable but thin, which is no doubt what was intended.

Murphy is wonderful ... The plot is mechanical, clunky and boring.

Hilarious, good-hearted.

A showcase for wit.

Bowfinger (1999), Steve Martin's tribute to shoestring filmmaking and big-screen dreams, is a loving lampoon that gamely straddles the chasm between cynical con-artistry and benign innocence.
February 02, 2009
The best thing about Bowfinger is the way the script by Steve Martin is tooled to his own and Murphy's comic strengths.
June 18, 2002
Martin the writer plants some wicked barbs in Hollywood's rear end about creative financing of movies and hoarding of profits, the art of the deal, hipper-than-thou attitudes and exploitation.
February 27, 2008
Hugely funny film that mixes knowing satire with winning stupidity, and has Martin and Murphy in form they have rarely managed in recent years.
June 24, 2006
Preposterous and utterly self-absorbed, this has la-la land down to a tee.
Common Sense Media

Entertaining, great actors but not a home run.
March 19, 2002
This is his first screenplay since L.A. Story, yet you get the sense that Martin has lost some of the artistic aspiration he once brought to the movie business. This effort feels like it's just business.
