Surviving Eden Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Lynch, playing an abrasive TV producer, serves as an unfortunate reminder of the Christopher Guest movies that clearly inspired this exercise.
Film Journal International
Doris Toumarkine
If not a gift to audiences, it is an unintentional trove of how-not-to tips for aspiring filmmakers.

The tribal council has spoken: this is a funny movie.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
Reality TV, says one character in Greg Pritikin's Surviving Eden, makes you stupid and ill. The movie tries hard to prove it.

Mark R. Leeper
This comedy could use some polishing. With a little more style it could have been better, but there is a decent film inside this one somewhere.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Although early scenes hold out some promise that this parody of Survivor could amount to something, the movie quickly runs out of ideas.
TV Guide
Angel Cohn
Only Lynch's over-the-top network executive stands out in this otherwise bland film that tries for satire but neglects to be funny.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Surviving Eden is the sort of hapless vanity project where even the outtakes at the end aren't funny.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Writer/director Greg Pritikin has created a reality-TV satire as clueless as the self-impressed 'stars' it scorns.
Greenwich Village Gazette
Eric Lurio
No script, no stars, no nothing. What could go wrong?..Just because nothing did doesn't mean that the film is good.
eFilmCritic.com
Dan Lybarger
Writer-director Greg Pritkin ('Dummy') offers up a parody that's less enjoyable than the stuff he's mocking.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
The movie insists that we care deeply about its sad sack protagonist as some sort of Chaplin-esque victim of vanity and greed. But neither Pritkin's conception nor Panes' performance warrants such sympathy.
Village Voice
Joshua Land
This witless satire dares to take on the culture of -- get ready for this -- reality TV!
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
That it has nothing novel to say about the subject matter it's skewering is the film's largest failing.
