| eFilmCritic.comCollin SouterBut It Now accomplishes so much in one hour that I wouldn't be surprised if media arts teachers across the country used it as a springboard for class discussion. |
| eFilmCritic.comErik ChildressHarrowing and a sign of our morality-run-amok times, the result is a staggering showpiece and a potent, unsettling film. |
| Empire MagazineAnna SmithAs a portrait of our consumer-obsessed society through the eyes of an alienated teen, you'll buy into this from the first frame. |
| Time OutBen WaltersCampos establishes a complex nexus of contemporary social and aesthetic concerns with impressive economy and Logan's double performance is strong. |
| Shadows on the WallRich ClineThere's a certain genius to this two-part feature that forces us to examine our culture in twisted, complicated ways. |
| Las Vegas WeeklyJosh BellAs a 30-minute short film, Buy It Now is a masterpiece; as a feature, it's a frustrating failure. |
| Times (UK)Wendy IdeAt just over an hour in length and divided starkly into two halves, Buy It Now is a real oddity.It's raw, real and rather effective as a comment on consumerism and alienation in society. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawIt's almost an object lesson on how enlarging a short film can be messed up. What a pity that Antonio Campos could not have found a way to start from scratch and grow and develop his story more satisfyingly. |
| Little White LiesAndrea KurlandThe Pussycat Dolls must burn on a flaming heap of celeb mags. It's societies only salvation, seriously. |
| User ReviewJacqueline TThis was mad! Very short film about a slag that flogs her virginity on good old ebay. Of course its obvious what happens, She gets fucked and gets her money, Then film has a silly ending by her cutting her wrists! Whats the crack there!?!? |
