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."

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

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."
