Reception according to Wikipedia for Everything Must Go.
Reception has been mixed. Kirk Honeycutt of The Hollywood Reporter said "Playing an alcoholic at a crucial crossroad in his life, (Ferrell) uses his middle-age slacker persona well to convey a guy lost in his own immaturity and low self-esteem. (...) But the performance is too one-note. Using an acting muscle hitherto ignored, Ferrell isn't able to track the ups-and-downs in the story's dramatic beats. Instead he falls back on physical humor and facial expressions that don't quite get to the bottom of what ails his character." Stephen Saito of IFC said in his review; "Ferrell is a believable everyman, but morose to the point of indifference (not his, but ours)".
