Rich Kids Ratings & Reviews
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
Mostly comedic, but also insightfully touching at times, this sole produced screenplay by playwright Judith Ross didn't make much of a splash upon release in 1979, but it retains an offbeat charm.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Slow moving drama/comedy.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...a slow-moving yet increasingly absorbing drama...
Sojourner
Ellen Cooney
[Rick Kids] is a sensitive, touching, and beautifully humane film about familial interactions. Judith Ross' script, an exercise in the often absurd and always credible ways parents love their children, is full of a rare kind of tenderness and sympathy.
Washington Post
Judith Martin
Heart warming is not really the term ... "Insufferable" would be more like it.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
even when the film feels a bit sluggish, there is always a moment of insight or humor just around the corner to perk things up
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
Rich Kids does a remarkable job covering Manhattan as a playground for the affluent.
