Leave your thoughts about The Wackness.
| Laramie Movie ScopeRobert RotenBetter than most "coming of age" stories due to some fine comic and dramatic performances by a talented cast. |
| E! OnlineAlex MarkersonIt's an acquired taste, more bitter than sweet, but it lingers -- a lot like smoke. |
| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfWhile Levine works his film-school-grade visual quirks out (Spike Lee should call his lawyer), the story of Wackness is left in a messy bundle. |
| Urban CinefileAndrew L. UrbanA thoroughly engaging comic drama with absurdist elements %u2013 or is that just real life |
| FilmStew.comRichard HorganKingsley's pot smoking puddle of regret is one of the few Big Apple personas to come close to Hoffman's bag of Ratso Rizzo tricks. |
| Daily Mirror (UK)David EdwardsKingsley is likewise on form and hits home with some terrifically world-weary one liners, while director Jon Levine brings a refreshing inventiveness to the film. |
| East Bay ExpressKelly VanceAn exercise in style and wit, two commodities that never go out of fashion. |
| Arkansas Democrat-GazettePhilip MartinLevine has an eye for detail and the germ of what Stephen Colbert might call a "truthy" idea - that it is possible, even through a chemically induced fog of numbness, to genuinely feel for another person. |
| I.E. WeeklyAmy NicholsonThough he has a shorthand approach to capturing 1994, Levine nails the swirling energy of first heartbreak as his teen stoner rehearses his first Big Moment |
| Daily Telegraph (UK)Sukhdev SandhuLevine's film is often showy, clumsy, over-earnest. But then so are its characters. So is late adolescence. The Wackness carries out the advice Squires gives to Luke - make a mess, embrace pain. In doing so, it ends up anything but wack. |
