IGN writes: "Apatow: a powerful surname in the world of comedy, and its mere association with a film release warrants a look-in. The latest of these, Get Him to The Greek is something of a side-story to 2008's Forgetting Sarah Marshall – produced by Judd Apatow and based on characters developed by Apatow-brethren performer Jason Segel. It doesn't quite stack up against the high notes, and the gags are uneven - but an overdose of pop-culture and some memorable set-ups make this a very amusing commentary on the foibles of rock stardom".
