TV Guide says:
Bill Murray and his brothers make up a foursome at the Grand Geneva Resort and Spa's Brute Course in Wisconsin, where they mix football and golf and splash around in water hazards and waterparks. Liberace: Ryan Stiles. Roger Montegomerie: Bruce Jarchow. Referee: Ed Murray. Cart Girl: Kelly Hazen. Native American: Robin Whitespear.
The Hollywood Reporter says:
… a wiggy party-cum-spoof that deliriously shreds pretty much everything that's sacred and holy about the great game of golf. From first hole through watering hole, from putting to puttering, this nutball half-hour takes the term "club hopping" to unapologetic depths of buffoonery … It also giddily revels in its political incorrectitude in a fashion that's rather akin to "The Man Show" were it to be moved outdoors. Unlike "Man Show," however, "Sweet" has moments of genuine hilarity factored into its testosterone-marinated sense of lunacy. … there's nonetheless something euphorically joyful about "Sweet" that proves contagious.
Entertainment Weekly gives it a grade of “B” and says:
Bill Murray is perhaps the funniest man alive. … some of the best golf comedy since we were treated to the zany antics of a little guy named Dorf.
