Leave your thoughts about Daydream Nation.
| AV ClubKeith PhippsIt's a film about teen angst that's too caught up in its characters' state of mind to see its way through to the other side. |
| New York PostLou LumenickToggling between the tonalities of "Donnie Darko," "Ghost World" and the collected works of David Lynch, the blackly witty Daydream Nation takes its title from a Sonic Youth album. |
| Village VoiceErnest HardyDaydream is decently acted, overwritten, slickly shot, decked out with the requisite indie soundtrack, and propped up with angst-ridden poses and pouting lips. It's also another film in which on-screen teens, especially the nubile femme fatale at the center, are but vessels to showcase the screenwriter's irony-drenched, self-satisfied intellect. |
| New York TimesStephen HoldenDaydream Nation hopscotches forward and backward and in and out of the surreal; its abrupt tangents are announced by chapter headings. In the most complicated sequence the film tracks three characters simultaneously. The cinematography is darkly lush in an ominous "Twin Peaks" mode. |
| Shockya.comPerri NemiroffA fantastically enjoyable and refreshing piece, nestling itself right between standard Hollywood high school hoopla and more unconventional explorations of teen troubles. |
| We Got This CoveredMatt JosephAll three leads do a good job and the film is visually appealing. As a director, Goldbach shows promise. |
| VarietyJoe LeydonCharged with alternating currents of teen angst, sardonic wit, nervous dread and impudent sensuality, Daydream Nation suggests "Juno" as reimagined by David Lynch, or a funnier, sunnier "Donnie Darko." |
| JWRS. James WeggDirector/writer Mike Goldbach's first half of the film is engaging ..., suspenseful (who is the "man in the white suit?"-with a delectable shade of grey served up red herring style) and masterfully balanced. |
| Cairo360Yasmin ShehabYes, this film does rely rather heavily on clichés but it's very well acted and the dialogue rarely gets boring. |
| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfDaydream Nation is a mess, but a gorgeous mess. Come for the flaccid teen distress, stay for the stunning imagery. |
