- AMG All Music Guide: Kick - Steve Huey's review: "every song is catchy and memorable, branded with indelible hooks. Even without the band's sense of style, the flawless songcraft is intoxicating, and it's what makes Kick one of the best mainstream pop albums of the '80s." 4.5 stars.
- BBC: Kick - Cormac Heron's review: "Opening with a guitar riff that is both Queen and the B-52's, "Guns In The Sky" lets you know this is not an album that can be ignored."
- CMJ: Kick - CMJ review: "Pop success is a given for this band, having built a rock-solid foundation through college radio play and intense live shows, and Kick should take them one step up the pop ladder without betraying their hard-earned legion of fans."
- Daily Vault: Kick - Christopher Thelen's review: "It's truly a shame that INXS was never able to match the success they enjoyed with Kick -- there's a good reason why this album is considered the best of their career.." Rating: A-
- I-Mockery.com: Kick - Protoclown's review: "This is one of the best albums to come out of the 1980's. If you consider yourself an 80's music fan by any stretch, then your collection just isn't complete without this most essential album."
- Nick Karn's Kick Review - Nick Karn's review: "...the hit ballad "Never Tear Us Apart" impressively manages to use both a string section and a saxophone solo without at all sounding cheesy, but the song's hook is so well-written anyway that those additions are almost secondary."
- Uncut: Kick - Uncut review: "Had it not been for the photogenic presence of Michael Hutchence, INXS would've struggled to graduate from Australia's pub-rock circuit."
