Leave your thoughts about Swing Kids.
| The SpectatorVanessa LettsDespite the film's overall ridiculousness, however, the choreography and music by Cab Calloway and Django Reinhardt is brilliant. |
| Common Sense MediaBrian CostelloIntense conflict in coming-of-age movie set in Nazi Germany. |
| Wall Street JournalJulie SalamonThe movie is a somber, smoothly crafted drama about a wily adolescent who senses there's something rotten going on in his country but can't quite put a finger on it. |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumA corny but sincere weeper written by Jonathan Marc Feldman, directed by Thomas Carter, and shot mainly in Prague. |
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergWorth it for the musical sequences, but not much more than that. |
| EmpireJeff DawsonFor its historical detail and recognition that teenagers were around long before James Dean sparked up a Marlboro, this film deserves some credit. |
| The New York TimesJanet MaslinSwing Kids looks good and moves quickly at first; later on, mired in familiar-feeling moments, it flounders |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliSwing Kids has a multitude of problems, the most glaring of which is its loose treatment of history and the Nazis. |
| Portland OregonianTed MaharThe screenplay is so murky, indeed, that I was never sure whether the Kids hated the Hitler Youth lads because they were Nazis, or simply because they didn't swing. |
| Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenThe script is all too often downright clunky though it's saved by vigorous direction (especially in the dance sequences) and performances. |
