The life of celebrated but reclusive author, J.D. Salinger, who gained worldwide fame with the publication of his novel, "The Catcher in the Rye".
Leave your thoughts about Rebel in the Rye.
| Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyYou won't find much new light shed on the reclusive author of The Catcher in the Rye in writer-director Danny Strong's polished but cliché-festooned biopic Rebel in the Rye. |
| Toronto StarBruce DemaraA faithful and often moving look in the life of J.D. Salinger, a warts-and-all portrayal that succeeds in large part because of a dynamically persuasive performance by Nicholas Hoult. |
| Kaplan vs. KaplanDavid Kaplan"Rebel in the Rye" may inspire a whole new generation of readers to pick up a copy of the book, and even more remarkably, it may encourage older generations to re-visit the novel of their youth. |
| Tolucan TimesTony MedleyThe recreation of New York, the Stork Club, and the dress of those years is excellent, as are all the performances. Writer-director Danny Strong has created a compelling portrait of the elusive Salinger that had me mesmerized. |
| Assignment XAbbie BernsteinThe environment is immersive and the story is engrossing, even though neither filmmaker Strong nor actor Hoult tries overly hard to make Jerry sympathetic. |
| Common Sense MediaMichael OrdoñaSome violence and post-war trauma in whip-smart biopic. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperWith Rebel in the Rye, we get a solid, well-acted and basically standard biopic about the man who created Holden Caulfield, largely in his own image. |
| ReviewExpress.comDiana Saengerwell done and very interesting with a great cast |
| ColliderMatt GoldbergInstead of demythologizing Salinger, Rebel in the Rye plays like a fan film rather than an honest examination of a complex figure. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonA most conventional, but smoothly watchable, biopic. |
