Film.com’s Ethan Morris states that “Ferrell delivers a ‘straight
man’ comedic performance that would make Bud Abbott proud” in his piece
titled, href="http://www.film.com/story/littledidheknowstrangerthanfictionnotjustanotherferrellfarce/12675450">Little
Did He Know … Stranger Than Fiction Not Just Another Ferrell Farce.

Rolling Stone’s Peter Travers gives Fiction 3 out of 4
stars, and says that, “This is a Ferrell you’ve never seen before,
nailing a role that calls for breakneck humor in the final race against
the clock and touching gravity in the love scenes with Gyllenhaal.”
