T.J., a high school freshman, lost his mother two months before in a car accident: his father pops pills and sits on the couch; his grandmother holds things together, chatting and cooking. T.J. wants the car back from the salvage yard where the owner's son is a bully. By happenstance, Hesher, a foul-mouthed squatter, moves in with T.J's family. T.J. also meets Nicole, a grocery clerk near poverty who helps him once. Hesher involves T.J. in crime, the bully is omnipresent, mom's car is slipping away, dad has checked out, T.J. watches Nicole at work, and his grandma invites him to join her morning walk: the odds are long that T.J. can assemble a family to help him thrive.
Leave your thoughts about Hesher.
| Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeToo dark for a very broad audience, it will flummox some viewers drawn by its cast but will strike others with its more-than-prickly approach and standoffish humor. |
| Washington ExaminerKelly Jane TorranceGordon-Levitt never puts in a bad performance, and he carries this film as easily as he's done any other. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzA quirky film that's served well by its great cast, but not enough to impress me that it had any depth. |
| Paste MagazineMichael DunawayJoseph Gordon-Levitt must be especially glad for this film to see the light of day, because his performance is award-worthy, a complete inhabiting of as unique a personality as you'll encounter in film. |
| New York PostKyle SmithUnlike many films that hope to be called black comedy, it does not skimp on either the black or the comedy. |
| AV ClubNathan RabinIt's all quirk, posturing, attitude, and needless exertion signifying nothing beyond its own sad need to impress. |
| Seattle TimesMoira MacDonaldA grim little drama that seems to exist in order to give the talented Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Natalie Portman a chance to look extra-scruffy. |
| NPRBob MondelloDirector Spencer Susser doesn't try to make Hesher anything other than a sociopath - a walking, profanity-spewing id - and to his credit, neither does Gordon-Levitt. |
| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfArtifice is rodeo clowning for the script's flaws, with huge gaps of character development lost to a film that would rather stay on Hesher and his staring contests than tell a full-throated story. |
| Reeling ReviewsLaura Clifford...Gordon-Levitt and Piper Laurie make for one of the year's most intriguing screen couples. |
