Here Comes the Fuzz was met with generally favorable reviews from music critics. Dorian Lynskey of The Guardian praised the album, stating: "the whole caboodle is informed by the freewheeling, celebratory spirit of late 80s hip-hop, and adds up to one of 2003's most irresistible party records". Jessica Koslow of HipHopDX declared: "Ronson gives us a handful of hot songs and crazy cool collaborations. He definitely has a buzz and well, here comes the fuzz (whatever that means)".

In mixed reviews, AllMusic's Matt Collar found the album "does ... resonate with the pulse of youthful ego driven by libido and hot wax". Matt Diehl of Rolling Stone wrote: "Ronson's first album as an artist, Here Comes the Fuzz, may stop the ill will: with guests such as Sean Paul, Q-Tip and Ghostface Killah alongside rock guys such as Rivers Cuomo and Jack White of the White Stripes, Ronson serves up a grab bag of pumping beats - and plays almost all of the instruments on the album". Neil Drumming of Entertainment Weekly resumed: "the collection's overall disco-licious come-together vibe is cloying and insubstantial. Better make it a Blockbuster night".
