The Clapper Ratings & Reviews
Punch Drunk Critics
Julian Lytle
The Clapper is a comedy that doesn't totally know what it wants to be, a commentary on fame and class or a romantic comedy. What we end up with is something that never really does both well and ends up hampering each theme.
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
If it's supposed to be a comedy, it's not funny. If it's supposed to be a satire, it doesn't know what it's satirizing.
We Are Movie Geeks
Cate Marquis
The Clapper is not a film for everyone. It is a small film that has some charm as a sweet oddball rom com but which falls short in exploring its characters.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
The screenplay is uneven, but the exceptionally strong cast makes it watchable.
Slant Magazine
Keith Watson
The Clapper hints at the psychological roots of Eddie's peculiar personality, but in the end it isn't at all interested in understanding the man. And that's because it's too busy making fun of him.
The Hollywood Reporter
Sheri Linden
Montiel treats his story's happily unsung oddballs with sincere affection. He doesn't hold them up to ridicule, or insist that they snap out of their quirkiness and conform. But he doesn't quite know what to do with them.
Village Voice
Tatiana Craine
It's an interesting premise, but The Clapper doesn't live up to its namesake.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
It may be early in the year, but it's a good bet "The Clapper" will land among 2018's worst films.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Even at a time of year when movie companies typically unload their dross, the sheer awfulness of Dito Montiel's "The Clapper" stands out.
Slant Magazine
Kenji Fujishima
Rarely does anyone's behavior here feel in any way tied to authentic human experience, only to Dito Montiel's fatally leaden comic touch.
Variety
Peter Debruge
The movie is not entirely without charm - although it's safe to say, it's mostly without charm.
SF Weekly
Jeffrey Edalatpour
The movie is a less assured version of Shira Piven's Welcome to Me, in which she and Kristen Wiig unleash the full neurotic potential of the "15 minutes of fame" expression. The Clapper only pays lip service to it.
The Playlist
Rodrigo Perez
Artless and clueless at every turn.
Parade Magazine
Neil Pond
A small movie with a big, generous heart, it never makes fun of its characters, even the guy who trots around Hollywood in a diaper, or the dude dressed up like a big baked potato.
We Got This Covered
Lauren Humphries-Brooks
The Clapper is a sharp combination of sweet romance and biting satire on the cruelties committed in the name of entertainment.
Film Journal International
Shirley Sealy
There's zero real humor in The Clapper-at least not the kind we've come to expect from its stars.
Paste Magazine
Jacob Oller
The Clapper is just so boring and corny that all the audience can do is either feel bad for Helms or disingenuously applaud his unsuccessful efforts, mimicking his character's chosen vocation.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...a relentlessly quirky comedy that remains curiously uninvolving for the duration of its short-yet-not-short-enough running time...
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
There's not much to applaud in this misguided offbeat comedy that fails to generate sufficient humor or poignancy from a broad satirical target.
Screen Zealots
Louisa Moore
The thin premise lacks any compelling elements, is absent of any engaging characters, and eventually goes nowhere.
