Kicking and Screaming Ratings & Reviews
LarsenOnFilm
Josh Larsen
...clever, confessional narcissism.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
I like people who talk interestingly, who have read books, who appreciate verbal wit, who look dubiously at establishment assumptions.
Film and Felt
Gabe Leibowitz
For a debut, Noah Baumbach's Kicking and Screaming is an impressive effort, but it lacks the resonance or flexibility of his The Squid and the Whale, released ten years later.
USA Today
Mike Clark
Writer-director Noel Baumbach establishes an ear for commentary during his wry-guy movie's opening graduation party.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
Charts the aimlessness and ennui of four insufferable, maturation-adverse college grads with relaxed realism.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Stands out amongst the 'twentysomething and fresh out of college' crop of films.
Zap2it.com
Daniel Fienberg
Not much happens, but it captures that moment between college and the real world with perceptive [occasionally glib] accuracy.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Mixing the neurotic drive of Woody Allen with the urbane wit of Stillman, this derivative debut presents yet another take on guys who simply can't let go of college--and their adolescence.
Newsweek
David Ansen
Baumbach puts his trust in the details, and he gets them right.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
First-time writer and director Noah Baumbach, 25, has a knack for acute observation and a spirited cast to animate every twisted nuance.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Baumbach ... pushes his rigorous stance to the extent that you begin to wonder why you're bothering to watch the aimless lives of these four unfold.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
In general, Baumbach's eye for generational detail is impeccable -- he knows what's on these kids' minds, and has found a language to express it.
