"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

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

3/4
"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

"Lane isn't going to save the sorry state of the genre."  Planet Sick-Boy  Jon Popick

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

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
