Chris Evans can only do so much to save this one.

It's hard to detect, in my eyes at least, anything here that is terribly new or exciting about this movie.

Impossibly generic, hopelessly contrived, and formulaic beyond reason.

The one surefire way that Anna Faris can make sure she dials up Mr. Right is to make sure she never takes him to see this film.

Neither a strong-enough comedy in its own right, nor is it intelligent-enough to challenge any of the sexual double-standards which it attempts to explore -- in fact, it quite definitely reinforces them.

Despite being hindered by production values that aren't on par with the on-screen talent, What's Your Number? isn't completely without merit; though with a premise like this, it may have worked better as a sitcom instead of a rushed film.

A secret genius at work in the stupidity.

By trying to remain romantic comedy audience-friendly, it just purees the whole thing into a stew no one would want to eat.

What's Your Number? isn't necessary as a romantic comedy should be. It goes for the cheap way out at every turn and uses Faris as a punching bag for acquiring jokes.

While Faris is her usual, lovably offbeat self, she ultimately fights a losing battle against formula.

Ally may start out as your typical bubble-headed man-chasing twenty-something dolt but, thankfully, underneath the surface she turns out to be a heck of a lot more than that.

Sometimes, underneath a film's 'R' rating for sexual content and foul language, lies a core of sweetness and warmth. Unfortunately, for the unsuspecting viewer who is used to the quality of, say, Judd Apatow comedies, this is not one of those films.

The film's satirical jabs at people addicted to Facebook and Twitter raises a few smiles in what is otherwise a straight-to-cinemas DVD release.

Anna Faris and Chris Evans have enough charm to almost pull this off. Almost.

Margaret Pomeranz At the Movies (Australia) Oct 12, 2011 3.5/5

There is something really attractive about Anna Faris as Ally, she has that mesmerizing mobile mouth that distracts but her presence is actually totally winning. She's a klutz but a loveable one.

Jake Wilson The Age (Australia) Oct 12, 2011 2.5/5

Still, it's hard to dislike any vehicle for Faris -- the slob's Marilyn Monroe -- with her gift for dejection and her pliable face, which is like a hastily drawn cartoon.

Jeff Bayer The Scorecard Review Oct 11, 2011 3/10

If anything, it feels like 'What's Your Number?' is the worst version of what 'Bridesmaids' could have been. It just doesn't heart, and every joke feels completely forced and obvious.

Fresh, funny and boosted by Anna Faris' superb comedic performance, this raunchy rom-com registers as a surprising delight.

The film isn't great, but Faris is.

Like recent rom-com Friends with Benefits, it's the chemistry of the two leads that keeps it afloat. They just deserve better material to flirt around.
