Jesus Henry Christ Reviews
New York Times
Stephen Holden
So what is "Jesus Henry Christ" about?
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Even for a surreal black comedy, "Jesus Henry Christ" requires massive suspension of disbelief.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
It winds up just being annoying
Los Angeles Times
Mark Olsen
Pleasant without being revelatory, underwhelming but not obnoxiously so, the film explores how we become who we are, whether by genetics or environment or some combination of the two.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
Lee scratches the skin of family bonds until it bleeds.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
The title alone invites you to cuss at this smug film about family tites, and you may do so the second you catch a whiff of the portentous first shot: a Wes Anderson put-on.
Common Sense Media
S. Jhoanna Robledo
Stylized comedy explores identity; adults drink and smoke.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
Aggressively, painfully quirky...
Movie Metropolis
James Plath
Like "Little Miss Sunshine," this quirky indie comedy chugs along at an amiable pace, and with the same sort of dysfunctional family humor. It's not as successful as that film, but only because it's not as complex.
Village Voice
Chuck Wilson
Making their screen debuts, young Spevack and Weinstein give the film's most natural performances and provide its little bit of warmth, but it seems time to petition Collette, a truly gifted actress, to take a long hiatus from playing bitter single moms.
NPR
Andrew Lapin
Henry can finish a college application test in two minutes, yet Jesus Henry Christ doesn't know what to do with 90.
Variety
John Anderson
Too deliberately eccentric to attain quite the level of wigginess it aspires to, Jesus Henry Christ does feature some standout perfs and a refreshingly unconventional approach to telling its slight story.
Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Mildly nutty comedy about a teen prodigy suffers from an underwritten script and overstylized gags.
Battleship Pretension
David Bax
That sort of thing felt unnatural in Napoleon Dynamite, eight years ago. Here, it's just embarrassing.
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
A deplorably maligned effort that grovels unashamedly for attention, Jesus H. Christ, what were they all thinking?
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
The film is an uneven mix of forced eccentricities and gradually annoying visual gimmicks that leave the characters almost completely detached from reality.
Shockya.com
Brent Simon
Its casually whimsical tone and esoteric asides come across less as emblematic of a genuinely original voice, and more like an amalgamation of Little Man Tate, Rocket Science, Running With Scissors and, of course, Rushmore.
BrianOrndorf.com
Brian Orndorf
Boldly colored and sharply designed, but there's little to take away from the movie besides a surface appreciation for certain production accomplishments.
Paste Magazine
Clay Steakley
The cast is the spine of this film. Toni Collette and Michael Sheen give masterful performances as the hapless parents, and young Jason Spevack and Samantha Weinstein do the same as the brilliant, awkward children.
