(1 - 18) of 18 OFCS Rating: 22% Rotten Page   1   1.5/4 "The crude-dude genre staples are mechanically rendered: gay panic in a biker bar, mescaline-fueled dreams, highway chases, and cancer."   Slant Magazine   Bill Weber C "The war is over, the movie is available in some form to the general public, and the natural response after viewing? The film wasn't worth all the fuss it generated."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf C- "Little boys that play with action figures might get juiced up from cameos by the likes of Carrie Fisher and William Shatner, and the promise of a booby flash, but "Fanboys" is not an enjoyable ride for the rest of humanity."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey 2/4 "...the film really only works in fits and starts..."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair 2.5/4 "The kind of groovy, easygoing, good-hearted affair that manages to entertain despite its shortcomings. Fanboys will leave you with a smile across your face for ninety minutes."   DustinPutman.com   Dustin Putman A- "Probably the closest thing my generation will get to having its own "Diner""   FilmJerk.com   Edward Havens 2/4 "I have never not laughed so much since I saw "Gone Fishin'"..."   Cinema Crazed   Felix Vasquez Jr. 2.5/4 "While Fanboys has moments of success, it is mostly a middling road picture that doesn't do a lot more than any average, forgettable entry into the tired genre."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli "A comedy by Star Wars geeks, for Star Wars geeks. It's also pretty average . . ."   Sci-Fi Movie Page   James O'Ehley 2/5 "The Force isn't with crude story of fandom and friendship."   Common Sense Media   James Rocchi "Parental Content Review"   Screen It!   Jim Judy 2/4 "A missed opportunity to make a smart, affectionately witty skewering of obsessive fanboy culture."   TheMovieReport.com   Michael Dequina C "It is a shame that a movie about the people who are most passionate about edgy, imaginative stories is itself slipshod and formulaic."   Beliefnet   Nell Minow "Merely an extended high-five to those already in the Skywalker-adoring club."   The Screengrab   Nick Schager 1/5 "While "Fanboys" has an amusing premise, it doesn't know how to properly exploit it and the result is a film that is nowhere near as funny or incisive as it should have been."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski C "The best parts commingle with a lot of shopworn ideas that Kevin Smith more or less milked dry a decade ago."   Mania.com   Rob Vaux B- "This road movie heads in predictable directions but with unpredictable results."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 3.5/5 "What I expected to be a big fat mess of a movie turned out to be pretty dang fun -- quadruply so if you happen to be a Star Wars fanatic."   Cinematical   Scott Weinberg  (1 - 18) of 18 OFCS Rating: 22% Rotten Page   1
