Martin is his usual combination of flat cynicism and crazed childishness, indulging in some inspired Jerry Lewis-like clowning with his arms and legs hopelessly out of synch.

Martin is only occasionally grating with his Jerry Lewis-type mannerisms.

...one could not hope for more humor than from this unassuming title.

Martin vaults to the top of the class with his brazen, precise performance. This one goes in the time capsule.

Martin does some of his best acting in this film and steals the movie from Tomlin, whose character is, at best, a one-note creation.

Patently ridiculous, but acceptable because of the charm of the characters.

It scores a lot of points by speculating on the ways in which a man and a woman could learn to coexist in such close quarters. Against all the odds, a certain tenderness and sweetness develops by the end of the film.

Mr. Martin's astonishing performance is the film's most conspicuous asset, but the entire cast is good.

One Guy's Opinion

"All of me" is very funny, but not too outlandish, risque (at times) but not disgusting. A quality comedy with a heart.
