Daydream Nation Ratings & Reviews
We Got This Covered
Matt Joseph
All three leads do a good job and the film is visually appealing. As a director, Goldbach shows promise.
Orlando Weekly
Rob Boylan
The goodwill that the charming Dennings has built up in earlier films, such as 40-Year-Old Virgin and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, doesn't excuse this role.
eye WEEKLY
Jason Anderson
An alternately heady and queasy portrait of a small town slipping into madness.
Shockya.com
Perri Nemiroff
A fantastically enjoyable and refreshing piece, nestling itself right between standard Hollywood high school hoopla and more unconventional explorations of teen troubles.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Goldbach fills the story with too many distractions, but Dennings, known for "Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist," is feline and fun.
PopMatters
Bill Gibron
While not always comfortable in its quaint, quirky skin, it does deliver some intriguing performances and some inventive directorial turns.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
"Daydream Nation" rolls elements of "Juno," "American Beauty," "Donnie Darko" and "Twin Peaks" into a potent blunt.

Daydream Nation is a mess, but a gorgeous mess. Come for the flaccid teen distress, stay for the stunning imagery.
Los Angeles Times
Mark Olsen
A fitfully engaging effort that is most successful as a performance piece for actors Kat Dennings and Reece Thompson.
AV Club
Keith Phipps
It's a film about teen angst that's too caught up in its characters' state of mind to see its way through to the other side.
Village Voice
Ernest Hardy
Another film in which on-screen teens, especially the nubile femme fatale at the center, are but vessels to showcase the screenwriter's irony-drenched, self-satisfied intellect.
Variety
Joe Leydon
Charged with alternating currents of teen angst, sardonic wit, nervous dread and impudent sensuality, Daydream Nation suggests Juno as reimagined by David Lynch, or a funnier, sunnier Donnie Darko.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
Before it completely wears out its welcome, Daydream Nation basically comes off as a watchable teen drama.
