Leave your thoughts about Stand by Me.
| Philadelphia Daily NewsJoe BaltakeIt is about the evolution of a writer, his relationship with his three closest friends and a situation that formed his talent -- and morbid fascination. |
| EmpireEmma CochraneThe entire cast is superb and it so perfectly paced, that the story unfolds with wit, pathos and sensitivity and completely free of emotional shortcuts. |
| Philadelphia InquirerCarrie RickeyThe Ben E King theme song and all the imagery of tousled adolescents preening themselves like miniature James Deans rekindle memories of old jeans commercials, but the film is so well-observed and so energetically acted by its young cast that mawkishness is kept at bay. |
| Cinemaphile.orgDavid KeyesWhen you are an adventure-seeker stuck in that odd transition between early youth and adolescence, few movies resonate more than "Stand by Me." |
| Las Vegas Review-JournalCarol ClingHaunting coming-of-age drama; young River Phoenix's presence adds considerable poignancy |
| Radio TimesAndrew CollinsRob Reiner's bucolic, nostalgic drama is widely agreed to be one of the most successful adaptations of a story by horror master Stephen King. |
| The TelegraphAlex HannafordStand By Me is one of those films that stands up to the test of time. It may never top any critic’s “films of the century” list, like Citizen Kane, or Raging Bull, but it has a charm and depth that seems to resonate with each generation. |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseExquisitely captures the vulnerability not only of youth, but of the male identity. |
| Los Angeles TimesSheila BensonStand By Me is the summer's great gift, a compassionate, perfectly performed look at the real heart of youth. It stands, sweet and strong, ribald, outrageous and funny, like its heroes themselves--a bit gamy around the edges, perhaps, but pure and fine clear through. It's one of those treasures absolutely not to be missed. |
| IGN DVDR. L. ShafferA near-perfect coming-of-age story peppered with regret, pain, nostalgia and love. |
