Leave your thoughts about Splinterheads.
| OregonianMike RussellThe leads have no chemistry; the supporting cast of carnies and eccentrics is bland; the staging is dull; not a single gag lands; and Justin and Galaxy's one get-to-know-you conversation is never heard because it's buried in a road trip music montage. |
| Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatySplinterheads, which aims to be a quirkier "Adventureland," never rises above mildly amusing. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisSplinterheads gains traction from an eclectic cast that knows how to work a line. |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferAmusing, lively and imaginative with terrific, crisp cinematography, but it's often too cartoonish, convoluted, juvenile and low on laughs. |
| VarietyPeter DebrugeWriter-director Brant Sersen's amiable indie comedy -- even less edgy than Greg Mottola's theme-park-set "Adventureland" -- attempts to compensate for its too-familiar romantic setup by defining its characters through idiosyncratic hobbies and traits. |
| Time OutAndrew GrantEqual parts Hollywood meet-cute and quirky coming-of-age tale. |
| Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenAmiable and proficient, this indie romantic comedy is never more or less than reliable. |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoSplinterheads might suffice some late night on cable, but that's about it. |
| Village VoiceNick PinkertonIt's another tale of an overgrown kid accepted for his sweet, stammering self and nurtured out of his cocoon. |
| User ReviewMax WThis movie is hysterical from start to finish. Middleitch is gonna be a star. For all the haters: "fok all you hoes, get a grip" |
