Leave your thoughts about Hits.
| Hollywood ReporterDavid RooneyHits: a frequently funny but easy-prey satire about America's obsession with fame, displaying a small-screen sensibility that extends from its joke setups to its boxy visuals. |
| Under the RadarAlee KarimHits is probably not what you're expecting it to be, and that's a good thing. |
| AV ClubJesse HassengerThe satire of self-satisfied, opportunistic Brooklynites is cutting, but it lacks the humanity afforded the upstate characters, and quickly repeats itself, seemingly by design. |
| Madison MovieRob Thomas"Mr. Show" mixed inspired silliness and vicious satire in equal measure, and "Hits" sustains that formula for 90 gloriously acerbic minutes. |
| We Got This CoveredDominic MillIt takes a specific kind of person to thoroughly enjoy Hits, and I - somewhat worryingly - am one of them. |
| FlavorwireJason BaileyCross faces the rather challenging task of sustaining a narrative that dislikes pretty much every character that inhabits it. But that's also what makes the film audacious - you've got to admire Cross's consistency. |
| The Stranger (Seattle, WA)Sean NelsonCross's debut as a feature film writer/director focuses on this bleak social intersection, with encouraging (though discouraging) results. |
| New York TimesNicolas RapoldThe gloriously scabrous ending to it all leaves the viewer wishing this talented writer had let it rip earlier. |
| RedEyeMatt PaisRather than commenting on pop culture garbage, the film merely points at common knowledge and says, 'I hate that too.' |
| Movie NationRoger MooreThe problem with rounding up every comic friend you can think of to make a movie is that virtually none of them see their characters properly served. Everybody — everybody funny anyway — gets short shrift. |
