What to Know

Critics Consensus

Though it may strike some viewers as cold and unpleasant, Neil LaBute's Your Friends & Neighbors is an incisive critique of sexual politics wrapped up in a scathing black comedy.

The show’s creator, Jonathan Tropper, has done something interesting with his star. There’s a frisson of recognition that happens when you put Hamm in a role like this. Go to Full Review Tim Lowery AV Club Apr 4, 2025

If you strip away the non-stop banter some of the coming-into-my-own dramatic arcs of side characters, and that aforementioned satirical underscoring, there is a pretty fun dark comedy bubbling under here. Go to Full Review Rob Gonsalves Rob's Movie Vault Jul 23, 2007

Ronnie R @Rickyrose Jul 28, 2026 Far below its potential See more Dawn C @ChickenLady Jan 26, 2026 This movie made me want to take a shower to wash off the disgust I felt. I love dark comedy and this was not funny. Just awful. See more Alec B @Alec97 Feb 27, 2024 LaBute can certainly write compelling monologues but that, along with his deep cynicism, often make you think he has something profound to say when it's all ultimate pretty juvenile.

See more Fong Kok Hoong F @RT29722865 Jul 17, 2016 A raunchy comedy about the sexual politics and gender warfare that shocks, repels and challenges our acceptance level of indecency with only scathingly-written dialogue, very little sex and no nudity.
