Far from great.

Stunningly unfunny.

...pokes fun at every old fictional detective you can think of and every cliché you've ever wanted to red pencil out of a script.

This spoof of the great fictional-film detectives offers consistently funny scenes.

Hit & miss mystery spoof hits more often than it misses.

So it all doesn't amount to much, and -- some knuckle-dragging 'he's gay'/'no I'm not' humor aside -- it's more Scooby Doo than Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Still, it's an amusing tea-cozy of a spoof with an enjoyable cast.
October 03, 2007
Murder by Death is a very good silly-funny Neil Simon satirical comedy, with a super all-star cast cavorting as recognizable pulp fiction detectives gathered at the home of Truman Capote, wealthy hedonist fed up with contrived gumshoe plots.

As light and insubstantial as one could wish.
Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)

A sometime funny satire on the old murder-mystery detective series of the 1930s and '40s. Some jokes hit, while others just bomb.
June 24, 2006
Director Moore and writer Neil Simon seem to have no real affection for either the characters they plunder mercilessly for laughs, or the locked room puzzle they turn on its head. Introductions over, the film slides downhill.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)

Generally successful send-up of classic mysteries with a lame finale.

If it was funny, I missed it.
