Leave your thoughts about Me and Earl and the Dying Girl.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperMe and Earl and the Dying Girl has those handkerchief moments, but the laughs far outnumber the hard and sad punches. This is a movie that’s grounded in reality, has just enough whimsy and soars to the stars. It’s one of the best films of 2015. |
| The Blu SpotJeff BeckThis is one of those films that really makes you appreciate the smaller projects that come out each year. There are no fancy effects propping it up, no fancy camera work, just a brilliantly-written script and some marvelous performances. |
