Leave your thoughts about Echo Boomers.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperThis is a nifty little gem in the heist genre, with the familiar message about the perils of greed and always wanting more and more and even more. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreBut Echo Boomers — terrible title, BTW — can’t get by on echoes of better thrillers that covered the same ground. And betting on Schwarzenegger making the family name an acting dynasty seems like a long shot, even in a business known for its nepotism. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe result is that the slackly paced Echo Boomers has all the excitement of a feature-length essay in The Nation. |
| RogerEbert.comMonica CastilloAs with the many trend pieces complaining about millennials spending too much money on avocado toast over home mortgages, Echo Boomers gets a lot wrong about the generation it wants to discuss. Maybe the filmmakers should have listened more. |
| The PlaylistKevin JagernauthThe filmmakers’ inability or unwillingness to actually engage with the discourse it builds Echo Boomers around leaves the film feeling both artificial and hysterical. |
| User ReviewlastbetCouldn’t get enough of this one. Young Hollywood looks promising. Seth Savoy is an up and coming fresh voice that I can’t wait to follow. |
| User Reviewmovienerd423For 2020, I felt like this movie was pretty great. With no blockbusters coming out the indies had to step up and this one really does. Great acting. Super fun watch. |
| User ReviewCautionCamSolid little film. Overall enjoyable. Schwarzenegger was surprisingly fun to watch. |
