Movie Reviews

BrianOrndorf.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfEncino Man is frighteningly dated, but it was never made to be timeless. I just wish the picture had more laughs or instinctive madness.
Tampa Bay Times - 8/10 by Hal LipperHighly-evolved it ain't, but this Stone Age slacker is a lot of fun.
Independent (UK) - 7/10 by Sheila JohnstonThe film, school of Bob and Ted and Wayne and Garth, but inferior in all regards, illustrates the Theory of Reverse Evolution.
Common Sense Media - 6/10 by Heather BoernerSilly teen comedy has some Neanderthal behavior.
New York Times - 6/10 by Caryn JamesThe real question is whether Dave and Stoney and Link are worthy heirs to Bill and Ted or Wayne and Garth. Not really.
Hartford Courant - 6/10 by Malcolm JohnsonThe strongest contender imaginable for the worst picture of the summer.
Chicago Sun-Times - 5/10 by Lloyd SachsWhen Stoney explains that Milk Duds belong to one of the four major food groups, the dairy group, that's about as funny as things get. For a film that prides itself on throwing around Pauly-isms like fully (meaning yes), and grindage (food), Encino Man is surprisingly not buff (cool).
Los Angeles Times - 5/10 by Peter RainerThere are a lot of funny ideas in Encino Man that don't come off because the director, Les Mayfield, and his screenwriter, Shawn Schepps, don't seem to have made up their minds how smart they want to be. A scene like Link freaking out during a visit to the La Brea tar pits museum should count for a lot more than it does here.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City) - 5/10 by Chris HicksThis is every bit as insipid as it sounds, but it's also surprisingly innocent and has a most unexpected sweetness.
The Seattle Times - 4/10 by Jeff ShannonPauly Shore, the reptilian imp from MTV. Reeling off Valley Dude slang in a slurry monotone, as if he could barely be bothered to make his lips form words, he’s a fey sleazebag in hippie duds — a cross between Jim Morrison and Richard Simmons. The most interesting thing about watching Pauly Shore is wondering how long it will be before he has to take a day job.
