(1 - 14) of 14 OFCS Rating: 57% Rotten Page   1   "with teenagers, there will always come a time when innocence must be lost - but Levine's film transfixes this moment with the sharpness of a razor."   musicOMH.com   Anton Bitel 1/4 "So self-conscious that the movie feels like a feature length music video that's too busy admiring itself it the mirror to make any sense."   Reel.com   Blake French 1/5 "a feature length music video that's too busy admiring itself it the mirror to make any sense"   Filmcritic.com   Blake French D "Cluttered with obnoxious CW-scented teen characterizations, cartoonish parades of clumsy adolescent lust, and fruitless stabs of suspense, Lane is a rotten idea all around."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf 3/4 "One of the more memorable teen-oriented horror movies of the last few years. As much a comment on the objectification of women as it is a grimy, violent, enthralling slasher pic."   DustinPutman.com   Dustin Putman F "Dumb kids doing dumb things for dumb reasons."   FilmJerk.com   Edward Havens 3/4 "May have an indie budget but equally evokes the rich landscapes of early Terrence Malick and the grimy grindhouse tales of the '70s, converging poetically into its heartmashing climax."   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress B+ "What distinguishes it from the slasher flock, however, isn't its kills, but its smarts: the extent to which it taps into the high school psyche and recontextualizes its usual sex-alcohol-and-drugs temptations."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov 3.5/4 "Think of it as "There's Something About Mary" with a twist of "Friday the 13th"..."   Cinema Crazed   Felix Vasquez Jr. 3/4 "All the Boys Love Mandy Lane (is) the best modern slasher flick since Scream. In fact, I like All the Boys Love Mandy Lane a little more than Scream -- All the Boys may be knowing and post-modern as it begs, borrows and steals from films like Prom Night,"   Cinematical   James Rocchi 2/4 "Like far too many modern horror films, All the Boys Love Mandy Lane flaunts its knowledge of classic genre fundamentals but fails to do anything very clever or surprising with them."   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 3/5 "More of a dramatic freak-out than your standard teen slasher horror. Although the effect is exactly the same."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline 2/5 "A rather dull meat-and-potatoes slasher film front-loaded with lots of tedium where character development used to go."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves 4/5 "All the Boys Love Mandy Lane is what we call a "thinking man's slasher flick." Hell, it might just be the first one ever."   eFilmCritic.com   Scott Weinberg  (1 - 14) of 14 OFCS Rating: 57% Rotten Page   1
