Summer '03 Reviews
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
Summer '03 is a solid feature debut whose missteps are forgivable because of the strength and intelligence of the main character.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Fagerholm
Though the film's screwball energy keeps things relatively sunny, neither Gleason nor King fail to take the central protagonist's emotions seriously.
CC2K
Fiona Underhill
A welcome addition to films exploring complex teen girl protagonists.
Elements of Madness
Douglas Davidson
Hilarious, touching, bittersweet, and unabashedly honest, Summer '03 is a breakout film for writer/director Becca Gleason.
We Live Entertainment
Ashley Menzel
Becca Gleason has created something wonderful and extremely relatable that reaches to the core of the memories of adolescence for many women and for that, I thank you.
Film Freak Central
Alice Stoehr
Is this a black comedy à la Todd Solondz? Or a quirky teen drama with a dash of girl power? All in all, it's too glib, too zany, too half-hearted to be a solid example of either.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Warm, wise and wonderful. Funny, witty and heartfelt. Joey King gives the best performance of her career!
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
Every time Gleason's screenplay shifts away from Jamie... the movie seems to enter an entirely different mode.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
A charming little feel-good indie. Summer '03 allows Joey King to give the performance she's always had in her.
Movie Nation
Roger Moore
The one Joey King teen sex comedy that, if you watch it, will send you to Hell.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Captures the endless summer vibe with ease, only struggling when it comes time to address the severity of bad decisions, with Gleeson giving in to hysterics too easily.
Los Angeles Times
Kimber Myers
It never transcends its teen movie origins to become something more.
New York Times
Teo Bugbee
Vacant in emotion and in cinematic perspective, the movie looks back 15 years but struggles to make an impression longer than 15 minutes.
Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
There's nothing terribly new under the sun about any of what transpires. But writer/director Gleason has crafted a film that manages to be simultaneously funny, touching and sensitive.
Film Threat
Ayurella Horn-Muller
What Summer '03 teaches its audience is that control is an illusion. Tying into the realism of the production is another lesson: not every interaction or human connection has to have a fairytale ending.
The Mary Sue
Kate Gardner
Audiences will be divided on some parts of the story, especially the romantic plot between Jamie and Luke, but for Gleason's talents alone as a storyteller and director, it's worth giving the film a shot.
Film Journal International
Anna Storm
A missed opportunity of a filmmaking debut.
Solzy at the Movies
Danielle Solzman
With a fresh voice from writer-director Becca Gleason in her feature directorial debut, actress Joey King carries Summer '03 from start to finish...
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Though not always convincing, it's well paced and adequately entertaining, and it's effective in taking a light-hearted look at some difficult issues.
We Live Entertainment
Scott Menzel
Summer '03 is what a coming of age sex comedy should be and leave it up to a first-time filmmaker to show Hollywood how to do it right.
