Dinner in America Ratings & Reviews

Sweet story about rejects, little tough to watch in parts but overall satisfying
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
A movie with anti-establishment anti-social quicksilver coursing through its veins, but at its heart it is a sweet love story, one of the sweetest in recent memory.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Between the muddled satirical jabs and the unsympathetic characters, it leaves a sour taste.
Next Best Picture
Josh Parham
The chaotic restlessness juxtaposed against quiet suburbia is a fascinating dichotomy, and Rehemier presents an engaging portrait with a spirited, pulsating energy.
New York Times
Concepción de León
"Dinner in America" delivers on surprise and explosiveness, but much of its offensive language, both racist and homophobic, feels gratuitous in a film that might have otherwise landed as an offbeat love story.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Plays like a private joke for Rehmeier, who's not pursuing a story here, just an extended run of idiosyncrasy.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
There's much to enjoy here.
But Why Tho? A Geek Community
Collier Jennings
An anthem to the tenets of punk rock, with a surprisingly moving message at the heart of its rebellious fury.
The Film Stage
Jared Mobarak
While undoubtably unhinged politically and socially in ways that made me fondly recall the underrated God Bless America, it's also one of the sweetest love stories I've seen in years.
In Review Online
Selina Lee
Dinner in America updates an early-2000s brand of suburban misfit ennui with a winning, occasionally uneven blend of sweet and sour teen angst.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It comes with a star performance by Kyle Gallner to carry it through some of its rough spots.
Film Daze
Katie Duggan
Dinner in America gets in your face, in your head, and under your skin with its tunes and thunderous characters, serving up a feast for the senses in a feast for the senses a delicious helping of anarchic energy.
Films Gone Wild
Luke Y. Thompson
You'd probably be annoyed by Simon and Patty in real life. They'd definitely be bad dinner guests. But in all likelihood, you'll emerge from the movie loving one or both.
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
Adam Rehmeier's latest film arrives with the anarchic energy of a cherry bomb tossed into the bathroom toilet of Middle America.
C-Ville (VA)
Deirdre Crimmins
Dinner in America is destined to be the preeminent alt-romance of 2020.
Should I See It
Michael Ward
Dinner in America is a brash, confrontational comedy until it peels away its rough, sandpaper exterior and shows itself to be a pretty terrific comedy, unapologetic for wearing its heart on its sleeve.
CBR
Reuben Baron
Even at its best, however, Dinner in America never rises above passable outside of a couple musical numbers, and many of its best scenes have some sort of complicating factor dragging down the enjoyment factor.
ComingSoon.net
Grant Hermanns
Dinner in America is inarguably the best punk film since the Matthew Lillard-starring cult classic.
The Hollywood Reporter
Leslie Felperin
The engine idles while the two protagonists are maneuvered into place for their meet cute, but once that happens and the leads' chemistry supercharges the motor, it really lets rip.
