Leave your thoughts about Say Anything....
| Time OutDerek Adamshe love story is as old-fashioned as the jokes are old hat, but Crowe's amusing script and unforced direction allow the actors to develop reasonably authentic characters from stereotypical roles. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThat such intelligence could be contained in a movie that is simultaneously so funny and so entertaining is some kind of a miracle. |
| Montreal Film JournalKevin N. LaforestYou know that feeling when you're watching a movie for the first time, and it grabs you right away and it gets better and better until the very end? This is one of these very special films. |
| Film ThreatBrad LaidmanTo me, Say Anything is without a shadow of a doubt the most rewarding, funny, and likable romance of the last twenty years. It heralds the decency of romantic love against the gears of a cold, grinding mechanical world. |
| Apollo GuideBrian WebsterLow-key funny, smart and touching, this is the prototype for successful youth-oriented romantic comedy. |
| Slant MagazineBill WeberSay Anything was a singularly three-dimensional teen romance after a decade of broad gags and breakfast-club stereotypes in John Hughesland. |
| Filmcritic.comChristopher NullCameron Crowe crafts one of his best films around the end-of-high-school ennui and the uncertainties that come with that time in your life, but Say Anything... is aging faster than you might think, despite its many classic lines and moments. |
| Goatdog's MoviesMichael W. Phillips, Jr.These are things that are instantly recognizable, images and words that will be remembered as long as movies are remembered. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliCusack invests such sincerity in his portrayal of Lloyd that it's impossible not to root for him to get the girl. He's the classic underdog that we all think of ourselves as -- earnest, engaging, and impossible to resist because of his flaws, rather than in spite of them. |
| Washington PostHal HinsonThe cast is irresistibly charming, down to the bit parts by Lili Taylor and Amy Brooks as Lloyd's best friends. |
