Reception

Adam Graham of ''The Detroit Press'' opined, "Stoner comedies serve a very specific audience, but that designation doesn’t mean they have to be slapdash, lazy films. They work best when they’re comedies first, stoner movies second — “Half Baked” knew that, but “Ripped” doesn’t." Tom Keogh of ''The Seattle Times'' said, "While there are jokes about a pair of 1980s slackers trying to make sense of the internet and cellphones, the time-travel conceit doesn’t really mean much. “Ripped” works best as a middling series of gags about being far too many tokes over the line."
