Funny Story Ratings & Reviews
Pop Culture Reviews
Brittany Patrice Witherspoon
Matthew Glave's perfect comedic timing paired with the vulnerable, yet disorderly appeal of Emily Bett Rickards' performance is an odd pair that simply works perfectly.
Film Inquiry
Matthew Singleton
The most impressive aspect of Funny Story is that it succeeds in every area. Quality and efficiency seep out of every pore of this indie treat.
TV Fanatic
Carissa Pavlica
Funny Story is well worth your time. It's a captivating look at families and how the truth hurts but not nearly as bad as the alternative.

Nell Minow
Your appreciation for this film will depend in large part on where this all falls on your personal continuum from 'funny' to 'funny-ish,' to 'eww.'
Daily Film Fix
Jonathan W. Hickman
Matthew Glave shines in Michael J. Gallagher's uneven, but entertaining, dramedy.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Its attempted transition into a heartfelt tale of inclusion and reconciliation falls flat because the strained screenplay keeps its characters too detached from reality.
Los Angeles Times
Kimber Myers
Funny Story" is only mildly humorous, but it's watchable thanks to Glave's game performance that makes him likable despite his foibles.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
[T]he film begins as a comedy of errors and evolves with the realization that those errors were choices and that choices have consequences.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
A warmhearted seriocomedy that, even when not thoroughly convincing, projects a disarming sincerity.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
It radiates film festival catnip, but the picture stands on its own, paying attention to wounded people and their habitual interest in making mistakes.
Mark Leeper's Reviews
Mark R. Leeper
FUNNY STORY has a few minutes of humor, but it takes more than that to make a "funny story.
The Pop Break
Marisa Carpico
Unfortunately, despite an appealing cast, Gallagher's film falls into old stereotypes because the script simply doesn't dig into the characters or dynamics that he should.
Elements of Madness
Douglas Davidson
Even though there's nothing inherently funny about the main story ... Gallagher and co-writer Steve Greene manage to find humor in the humanity of the characters, brought to life beautifully from the whole cast.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
Gallagher shows a steady hand and an "acute" understanding of what's unfolding between Walter and Kim, creating a fascinating dynamic where the tension comes from seeing whether the pair can resist pulling others into their path of destruction.
Geek Girl Authority
Kimberly Pierce
Funny Story is a ... critical darling to come out of Slamdance 2018. If you are a fan of Emily Bett Rickards and this movie isn't on your radar, make sure it gets there.
Film Threat
Anthony Ray Bench
Funny Story has an incredibly dry sense of humor that the actors execute perfectly. I was really sucked in by everything that was happening on screen.
Cultured Vultures
Danielle Solzman
Arrow's Emily Bett Rickards delivers the performance of a lifetime in Funny Story.
