85/100
"The actors play this darkly funny material as if they are in a deadly serious Shakespearean drama, highlighting the situation's many absurdities"  Apollo Guide  Dan Jardine

2.5/4
"An odd, blacker-than-black comedy that's almost impossible to describe."  Reel Film Reviews  David Nusair

"A noxious, flippant mix of snark and biblical allegory."  Village Voice  Ed Gonzalez

3/4
"Deliciously profane, dark and somber, Denmark's Adam's Apples is fiendishly ripe for the picking."  TheWorldJournal.com  Frank Ochieng

"Adam ends up learning a lot of important life lessons, but this isn't sappy storytelling."  Planet Sick-Boy  Jon Popick

2.5/5
"Horis na dokimazei Dogma-tika tis antohes soy, den einai liges oi fores poy tis apsifa paizontas me to rythmo, eno i halari ploki einai profanes oti den endiaferetai kai idiaitera na soy dosei heroylia na piasteis"  Movies for the Masses  Joseph Proimakis

7/10
"With the most bizarre characters we have seen in film for quite some time, this strange comedy leaves the viewer constantly off- balance."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Mark R. Leeper

1.5/4
"Go-to screenwriter for the Dogma 95 collective, Danish writer-director Anders Thomas Jensen hits a decidedly sour note with Adam's Apples."  Slant Magazine  Nick Schager

4/5
"We have a comedy black enough to make even the most jaded viewer cringe a little."  Film Threat  Pete Vonder Haar

"Jensen doesn't pretend it's cute and/or harmless -- there's a fascinating ambiguity to the happy fantasy laid over the misery and failure."  GreenCine  Sean Axmaker
