Leave your thoughts about Greener Grass.
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Anne T. DonahueFortunately, Greener Grass is as enticing as it is bizarre, and even if you don’t immediately find yourself frolicking amidst its braces-wearing populace, give it time: you’ll eventually be lured in by their take on suburban normal. |
| VarietyPeter DebrugePresented as if filtered through a sunny Instagram setting, Greener Grass won’t exactly make you envious of the over-idealized lifestyle it skewers, and yet it’s such a delightful place to inhabit, you won’t want to leave when the credits roll. |
| Film ThreatAlan NgGreener Grass is over-the-top hilarity. It’s grounded. It’s smart. It’s downright disgusting. |
| Slant MagazineSteven ScaifeIn the film’s world, there can be no real resistance, as the suburbs have already won. |
| The PlaylistJonathan ChristianCounterbalancing a tongue-in-cheek treatise condemning the shallow obliviousness of the upper-middle class with niche comedic thrills, Greener Grass earns its reputation as a delightfully nauseating charmer that should be regarded as a salvia-covered tour de force for years to come. |
| Austin ChronicleJosh KupeckiIt can be an incredibly entertaining romp through the picket fence yards of an America that only exists in our collective unconscious. |
| The Hollywood ReporterLeslie FelperinThe cast commit enthusiastically to the material, walking that fine line between comic exaggeration and an almost earnest dramatic sincerity. |
| Paste MagazineAndrew CrumpIt’s the most awkward family TV show you’ve ever seen, offset by a never-ending barrage of gags squeezed off with such a consistent rate of fire that keeping up is impossible. But there’s a silver lining: Each is hilarious. |
| IndieWireKate ErblandDeBoer and Luebbe have further expanded their nutty vision of suburban ennui and the painful consequences of keeping up with the status quo into an unsettling and amusing send-up of human behavior. |
| RogerEbert.comSheila O'MalleyThe golf cart scene is an excellent example of what Greener Grass is attacking, and it's a sharp and subversive critique: it would be great to live in a more civil world, but too much civility leads to golf carts stalled at a four-way intersection. |
