21 & Over has received mixed to negative reviews from
critics, as it holds a 34% rating on Rotten
Tomatoes based on 44 reviews with the consensus stating: "Though it
strives to mimic The Hangover, 21 & Over is too predictable, too unabashedly
profane, and too inconsistently funny to carry the torch".
Relativity
Media has
been criticized by civil rights advocates for shooting part of the comedy 21
& Over in the city of Linyi, Shandong province, and choosing to
ignore the area's bleak human rights records, notably the treatment suffered by
activist lawyer Chen Guangcheng, who
was being held under house arrest in a nearby village.
