Critics Consensus

On the Rocks isn't as potent as its top-shelf ingredients might suggest, but the end result still goes down easy -- and offers high proof of Bill Murray's finely aged charm.

[The characters live] quite a privileged existence, but one that's quite a pleasure to watch.

There are worse sins than allowing a director to coast smoothly through her favourite moves.

For a while, the film teeters on the brink of sitcom territory, but rescues itself by introducing a degree of complexity in the proceedings.

There’s hijinks, there’s fun moments, and it’s Bill Murray. He’s always funny and charming in this.

4/5

Coppola keeps matters light, but the humour here has a sharp and icy edge throughout.

3/5

Coppola knows how to frame Murray so that his tired, fed up look gets the best lighting, and a low energy car chase is actually quite enjoyable

So boring it feels like it’s on purpose. And I like slow moving character driven movies. No character development either. It’s just a big ‘Who Cares?! Waste of time and talent

I thought the chemistry between Bill and Rashida was spectacular. Bill was great and so was the storyline and direction. Well done Sophia!

Boring, with some mildly interesting characters. A million people in the world could make this film. Maybe a million and one.

The movie is well performed, and the plot could have been interesting. Nevertheless, it is full of cliches, where the message is unclear, or too blandly portrayed to justify the investment for an hour and a half feature film.
