Critics Consensus: Semi-Pro is an intermittently funny, half-hearted attempt at sports satire, and one of Will Ferrell's weaker cinematic efforts.

Richard Propes

Never quite reaches its maximum potential in spoofing an era and attitude long gone from professional sports.

Bowling Green Daily News

Micheal Compton

"Pro" proves to be more miss than hit, with some spotty comedic moments and a story that is really nothing more than spare parts of much better films in the same genre.

Semi-Pro is, to put it charitably, semi-good. And I'm sure it will make a load of money.

The Tyee (British Columbia)

Dorothy Woodend

Semi-Pro has a lot of problems, not the least of which is that it is simply bone lazy in terms of plot development, story and pretty much everything else.

Semi-Pro will likely leave its star with a sore throat and bruised pride but a bulging wallet nonetheless: it's possibly the first movie ever to be less funny than the products it advertises.
