Leave your thoughts about Zero Charisma.
| Birth.Movies.Death.Devin FaraciZero Charisma is the nerd movie I've been hoping to see for years. |
| Village VoiceAlan ScherstuhlThe comic scenes arc into bleakness, and the bleak ones often collapse back into comedy. |
| Film.comJordan HoffmanDirectors Katie Graham and Andrew Matthews create a great framework for the epic nemesis battle, but also know when to pull back to keep the movie grounded in reality. |
| The Hollywood OutsiderAaron PetersonZero Charisma is one of those small gems that comes around every so often, a film you would probably be unaware of, were it not for strong word-of-mouth. |
| ScreenCrushMatt SingerDoes for pop culture dorks what Big Fan did for sports obsessives: examines their passion with equal amounts of empathy and satire. |
| The A.V. ClubA.A. DowdThat it never quite sinks into caricature is thanks to the imposing presence in the lead. Refusing to fish for sympathy, even as his character circles the drain, Eidson delivers a complex, bravely off-putting performance. |

| Movie MezzanineDan SchindelToo much of the film feels like wallowing in unpleasantness. |
