(1 - 28) of 28 OFCS Rating: 78% Fresh Page   1   C+ "Unsuccessfully walks the line between intellectual and physical comedy, but does have many genuinely funny moments"   AboutFilm.com   Carlo Cavagna 4/5 "Rushmore is a truly American film that deserves to be seen by many, many people."   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null "... it does manage a modicum of cynicism, not the usual hardcore late-'90s variety, but less abrasive, more adorable."   Philadelphia City Paper   Cynthia Fuchs 88/100 "Anderson is unable to frame an uninteresting shot."   Cinemania   Dan Jardine 1/4 "[Rushmore is] overblown with despicable and unfunny plot twists which create the illusion that audience members are seeing something worthwhile."   Cinemaphile.org   David Keyes B "This is arguably Bill Murray's best role yet."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 7/10 "Something very special."   Draxblog Movie Reviews   Dragan Antulov 4/4 "Rushmore, as in life, is a mixture of comedy and drama, of surprises and inevitability, and most importantly, is purely human."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Dustin Putman 2.5/5 "Rushmore is a film with a lot of promise. Unfortunately most of it gets wasted."   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress B "Rushmore is one of those films that are so original, it's almost off-putting."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov "A quirky comedy about an egocentric young man who proves himself to be an eager student of life."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 5/5 "While Rushmore can be analyzed from many angles, I think it’s most interesting as a daring and original character study."   eCinemaCenter.com   Gabe Leibowitz 2.5/4 "Rushmore is intended to be hip and funny, but it's not really either."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 3.5/4 "The filmmaking itself is fresh and original; lots of fast-paced camera work, splashy colors and quirky angles."   Palo Alto Weekly   Jeanne Aufmuth 9/10 "Quirky, unique, original in style, funny as heck, with some great performances put forth by the entire cast, this movie offers an extremely viable alternative to all of us who are sick and tired of watching the same old Hollywood comedies."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 3/4 "This is still a film not to be missed if you're tired of conventionality."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest A "It's uniquely inspired lunacy that's an instant comedy classic..."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 0/4 "[It] could be fun, but it never seems to be."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper 2.5/4 "...the quirkiness seems a little forced, a little overdone."   Movie Habit   Marty Mapes 6/10 "Rushmore is certainly one of the most original films in years. It saddens me that it simply didn't speak to me."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 4/4 "... the key to the film's memorable moments are the engaging characters."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Michael Dequina 3/5 "This is a movie in which a lot of hurt people grope toward something that even they cannot quite visualize. Its appeal is in its quirky characters and in its moments of humor and perception."   Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies   Nell Minow 5/5 "Moments of classic slapstick rubbing elbows with moments of painful candor."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves 8/10 "Rushmore is a charming, unconventional film that reminds me of the cult favorite Harold and Maude."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten 5/5 Read review   Netflix   James Rocchi 3/4 Read review   Big Picture Big Sound   Joe Lozito 8/10 Read review   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf Read review   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Susan Granger  (1 - 28) of 28 OFCS Rating: 78% Fresh Page   1
