Safety Not Guaranteed Reviews
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
Safety Not Guaranteed is droll and hilarious, but there isn't a cheap laugh in it, and the ending is so perfect it sends you soaring.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"Safety" can't sustain its own offbeat energy. By the end, even Aubrey Plaza would roll her eyes at it.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
"Safety Not Guaranteed" is eccentric enough to get mistaken for an uplifting fantasy, but it's Plaza who belongs in the penthouse.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
It's brisk and assured and never begs the audience's indulgence. No time is wasted. The movie is, at every moment, either funny or pushing the story forward, or both.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Safety Not Guaranteed casts an enchanting spell from its opening scene.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
"Safety Not Guaranteed" is most vibrant and vital at its edges, in the way that the characters interact with each other while waiting for something to happen.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
The film is modest but skillful and heartfelt, spiced just so by Plaza and company.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
A character-driven piece about regret and true partnership - our basic, primal need for someone to take the journey with us even if safety is not guaranteed.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Less of a philosophical argument and more of a character piece driven deep into the heart by Duplass and Plaza.
indieWire
Leonard Maltin
How do you incorporate a science-fiction element in a low-budget indie production? For answers, see the engaging new comedy Safety Not Guaranteed...
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Expectedly funny but unexpectedly touching, too.
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
"Charming" and "sweet" are two words that can be applied to this movie, which is considerably gentler than the R-rating might imply.
Slate
Dana Stevens
A slight, wistful comedy that, at least up to the ambitious but unsatisfying final scenes, combines sci-fi and rom-com to pleasing effect.
Chicago Reader
Drew Hunt
The film almost spirals out of control when some overtly conceptual elements are introduced to the plot, but there's enough conviction in the performances to keep them tolerable.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
A pleasantly ramshackle affair balanced uniquely between the crass and the sweet.
ScreenCrush
Matt Singer
Uses a target of modern day cynicism to tell a story about the importance of rejecting modern day cynicism.
James on screenS
Caryn James
Not a sci-fi movie but a droll, totally charming, un-hokey romantic comedy about two misfits. The film belongs to Aubrey Plaza's deadpan, touching, understated performance.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
"Safety Not Guaranteed" not only has dialogue that's about something, but characters who have some depth and dimension.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
A charming movie that blends comedy, romance and science fiction -- not necessarily the most obvious combination of genres, but one that director Colin Trevorrow and writer Derek Connolly manage with assured ease.

Leonard Maltin
If you like low-key, offbeat comedies, consider it a must-see. 'Safety Not Guaranteed' covers interesting ground, literally speaking, in Washington state, which gives it a fresh look and feel. It's also extremely well cast.
