Breakfast with Scot Ratings & Reviews
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
It's hardly the most gracefully made indie on the block -- more like a whole season of a sitcom crammed into one feature.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
It lacks the psychological realism of certain decent dramas and is too reliant on cheap pratfalls and Cavanagh's pinched approach to comedy.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
What elevates way above the merely adequate script by Sean Reycraft based on the novel by Michael Downing and Lynd's competent direction is young Noah Bernett as Scot. This kid is so great, he could give kid actors a good name again.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Anyone who's ever seen an After School Special knows where the family-friendly Breakfast With Scot is headed, no matter how well intentioned.
NPR
Bob Mondello
All the filmmakers are really after is a heartwarming little object lesson. ... [But] they perch their tidy little dramedy somewhere between sitcom and Movie of the Week.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
It's refreshingly snarky and quick.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
For its courage to address a ticklish subject with warmhearted humor, Breakfast With Scot, adapted from a novel by Michael Downing, deserves a light round of applause.
Boxoffice Magazine
Tim Cogshell
A sharp little Canadian drama that draws one in rather wryly.
Paste Magazine
Sean Gandert
The film's reliance on an otherwise clichd plotline cuts out a lot of its fangs, giving it an ending that feels good but doesn't really deal with the issues at hand
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
The film means well, but it's hardly cutting, made notable only by Bernett's performance.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
A feel-good tale with undeniably good intentions, this Canadian comedy-drama doesn't really manage to convince on any level.
Observer
Rex Reed
The smart performances, humorous dialogue and brisk pacing of Laurie Lynd's direction are all warm and friendly -- a nice antidote to misguided junk like I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry.
Variety
Jay Weissberg
The kind of gay-themed pic that won't ruffle the feathers of a granny in Manitoba, though it's bound to make more discerning auds groan.
Metromix.com
Geoff Berkshire
Basic cable-ready trifle.
Cinematical
James Rocchi
A heartwarming, fish-out-of-water family comedy.
New York Press
Mark Peikert
Having the straight Tom Cavanagh and Ben Shenkman play the unwilling gay dads in Breakfast with Scot may seem like a disappointment, but this quirky, surprisingly refreshing comedy has a few tricks up its sleeve.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...manages to impress thanks to its brisk, breezy pace and the uniformly personable performances.
Film Inquiry
Amanda Jane Stern
While not without its one big flaw, Breakfast With Scot is one of those movies that just makes you feel good. It takes some heady subject matter and turns it into a lighthearted holiday movie that is well-acted and thoroughly enjoyable.
Times-Picayune
Mike Scott
Although it dishes up an original premise and tries to mine laughs from a setup most studios wouldn't have touched with a 10-foot feather boa, it stumbles when it comes to generating any real laughs.
