"GEOGRAPHY CLUB" is based on Brent Hartinger's best-selling critically acclaimed novel: "What am I looking for?" asks 16-year old Russell Middlebrook of himself as he heads off on his newest adventure. Russell is still going on dates with girls, while Kevin will do anything to prevent his football teammates from finding out what he is concealing, Min and Terese tell everyone they're really just good friends, and Ike can't figure out who he is or what he wants to be. But the truth is too hard to hide - at least from each other - so they form the Geography Club. Nobody else will discover the truth about them as no other students in their right minds would ever join a club that sounds so boring. Their secrets will be safe from classmates. But are they? "Geography Club" is a smart, fast, moving and funny account of contemporary teenagers as they discover their own sexual identities, dreams and values and not merely live out their parents' desires and ambitions. Russell, Kevin, Min, Terese and Ike may not learn about actual places in their undercover social club, but they daringly explore the danger-filled, clique-mined landscape of Goodkind High School and courageously begin their journey in the exciting, still uncharted terrain of the human heart.

| Arizona RepublicBill GoodykoontzGeography Club almost makes up in good intentions what it lacks in technique and execution. Almost. |
| Village VoiceChuck WilsonIf the characterizations are perfunctory, the performances give them unexpected weight. |
| The New York TimesNeil GenzlingerThe film is at its strongest when Russell and Kevin face tests of their character brought on by their interactions with homophobic students. |
| Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinSweet, slight and frequently familiar, Geography Club, based on Brent Hartinger's novel about sexual identity among suburban teens, often feels as if it's circling its expiration date. |
| VarietyPeter DebrugeThe idea here isn’t to titillate with tawdry teen hormones, but to offer an outlet for all that mental distress young people take on while trying to find their place in the world. |
| Toronto StarLinda BarnardIts heart is in the right place, even if it is a sappy one. |
| User ReviewGreg CThe heart is totally in the right place. Story was a tiny bit jumpy but it did pull it together mostly in the end. Really great movie and definitely one of my new top gay movies |
| User ReviewJulio BJust saw it and to be quite honest it is one of the best coming of age movies I have seen. I loved every minute of it and I can totally relate to the main character. Its a great movie, I want to see more! I demand a sequel! |
| User ReviewRyan PUna trama bien armada, bien elaborada, buenas actuaciones (destacando a Meaghan Martin), buen reparto, buen guion, un buen desarrollo, eso tiene Geography Club, puede que sea mejor, pero con lo que tiene se le puede calificar como entretenimiento pasajero. |
| User ReviewBraydan HI cute Indie film about a teenager coming to terms with his sexuality. |
