- 80The GuardianLuke BuckmasterThe GuardianLuke BuckmasterIs this outrageous comedy sexy or revolting? Elliott proves – though this feels like the least of his achievements – that a film can be both.
- 80VarietyRichard KuipersVarietyRichard KuipersA cheerfully vulgar, consistently amusing and sometimes hilarious parody of life in a suburban Aussie cul-de-sac in the mid-1970s.
- 70The Hollywood ReporterHarry WindsorThe Hollywood ReporterHarry WindsorCrass, colorful and hanging together by the barest of threads.
- 63Movie NationRoger MooreMovie NationRoger MooreThe great pleasure in the picture is the way Pearce, Minogue, McMahon and the other adults hurl themselves into the vulgarity of it all.
- 60Screen DailySarah WardScreen DailySarah WardAn energetic, irreverent, autobiographically inspired affair filled with key swapping, children running amok and a rotting 200-tonne whale, the film proves a mixed bag but, given the era on display, its messiness always feels appropriate.
- 60Film ThreatFilm ThreatWhat Swinging Safari lacks in the story is made up in originality and a satisfying art direction.
