2.5/4
"Wittier than Not Another Teen Movie, stealthier than Storytelling"  Film Freak Central  Bill Chambers

D+
"The finished film can’t keep up with its ambitions, concluding with an all-too-easy act of violence to keep the audience invested."  FilmJerk.com  Brian Orndorf

1/4
"It's vision of suburban living is about as artificial and narrow-minded as the original NES Paperboy game it seemingly evokes during its opening CGI sequence"  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

B+
"Very shrewdly written, its plots and subplots foreshadowing one another and eventually coming together in wonderfully unexpected ways."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

C
"A movie that wants to be daring but winds up feeling prefabricated."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

3/5
"Even though it feels derivative, this blackly comical suburban drama is loaded with terrific details. And it features yet another excellent performance from Jamie Bell."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

C-
"Arie Poser's overworked satire of social alienation is a... sour portrait of suburban hypocrisy."  Seattle Post-Intelligencer  Sean Axmaker

2.5/4
"Has just enough scathing wit, absurdist flourishes, and pathos to make it noteworthy."  Reel.com  Timothy Knight

4/10
