| Film Journal InternationalFrank LoveceRiddled with [...] plot shortcuts and logic holes. |
| National PostChris KnightThe actors (including Danny Glover as the law) are a fine bunch, but the screenplay can't find anything original to do with them. |
| New York TimesNeil GenzlingerAbout Scout is another entry in the “charming road movie” genre, one that banks a little too heavily on charm and not enough on story. |
| User ReviewPixie HLoved this sweet surprising film! India Ennenga Is great in it. |
| User ReviewDan LThe bad reviews are surprising on this one. I think this is a great movie that looks at the tragedy in its plot with a wry youthful smile. The lead actors are top-notch, and their chemistry is great. I'd watch it again. |
| User ReviewCollin Rthere is only so much decent-good acting can do for a paint pealingly boring script |
