Critics Consensus

Instead of investing in its tremendously talented stars and outlandish fact-based story, Jerry & Marge Go Large gambles on a pile of clichés.

Found the movie very enjoyable and the fact that it is based on a true story is even better. The leads are great and could watch it again,

I thought this movie was pretty good and they put a good spin on the true story to have some suspense in the movie.

Jonathan H

Really enjoyed this movie quite a bit. Cranston and Bening are extremely likeable and relatable. Based on a true story, this film is a classic "feel-good" tale that makes you root for the underdogs. And through brains and calculations, they just might be able to change not just their own futures, but the entire fate of their town. Overall, a very strong and positive movie, so it gets 4 1/2 stars from me.

The Australian

There is a nice emotional undercurrent as Jerry comes to understand that while mathematics is easy, human beings are complex. This is a highly enjoyable, finely acted, big-hearted film that reminds us that people are not just numbers.

Rated: 3.5/5

There is nothing that either Annette Bening or Bryan Cranston can do that is not worth looking at.

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

A tidy, light, and pretty toothless story that feels like a sitcom.

Beyond the Cinerama Dome

Unlike other based-on-a-true-story movies, the value of Jerry and Marge Go Large is not in the oddity of its story. Instead, this film should have doubled down on the love and sense of community Jerry and Marge created.

Digital Mafia Talkies

If you are looking to have a fun time and intend to watch two boomers (metaphorically) beat the hell out of an over-smart zoomer, please watch Jerry and Marge Go Large.

Rated: 4/5

Ready Steady Cut

Despite the joy of watching Bryan Cranston “breaking good,” Jerry & Marge Go Large falls apart under the weight of putting a premium on feel-good storytelling.
