| New York TimesWalter GoodmanThe implacable earnestness laid on by the script, which it took three people to put together, is not relieved by the nonstop songs, from rock-and-roll to Gilbert and Sullivan. |
| Time OutTom CharityA well-intentioned study of high-school kids coping (and not coping) with the pressures of adolescence, its naturalistic style only makes the more overt dramatic elements look forced and clichéd. |
| VarietyVariety StaffPic is populated by profoundly unrewarding characters doing and saying utterly uninteresting things. |
| Washington PostHal HinsonGood intentions and seriousness aside, it's not much of anything -- not terrible, but not terribly engaging or illuminating either. |

| User ReviewJennalynn *Powerfull movie about a group of friends who try to cope with the suicide of one of them.Anyone who says Keanu Reeves can't act should see this one!! |
| User ReviewBrian PThe first movie I saw Keanu in. Great movie addressing suicide, as in keeping with context, a bit of a downer. |
