The Road Within Reviews
New York Daily News
Graham Fuller
Riveting, full-blooded performances from the young leads and a tough-love ending raise it above what you may expect.
Observer
Rex Reed
he Road Within backfires by emphasizing the same quirks and imbalances it seeks to soften. Reducing it to the genre of idiot comedy doesn't advance the cause, either.
Punch Drunk Critics
Mae Abdulbaki
The Road Within is ultimately feel-good, the characters certainly diverse in their personalities as well as their disorders, and the underlying message isn't too heavy-handed.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
The presentation of Tourette's syndrome may be authentic, but everything else about the movie - the emotions, the characters, the situations - rings false.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Competently acted, offering moments of behavioral clarity that are truly something to see, but it's not a complete depiction of need, frequently resorting to distraction instead of tackling problems head-on.
Paste Magazine
Brent Simon
What most recommends The Road Within, however, is its casting and performances.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A quest drama that fizzles out quickly.

Kirk Honeycutt
One of those rare, rare movies that deals with challenging personality disorders with both wit and wisdom.
Slant Magazine
Drew Hunt
The film's tired sentimentality aside, its general lack of empathy is most damning.
The Young Folks
Allyson Johnson
...one of the film's greatest assets is that it doesn't try to beat the viewer over the head with particular messages or go to great lengths to create something maudlin.
Los Angeles Times
Katie Walsh
"The Road Within" suffers from midfilm wandering and a hasty ending, but the message of self-acceptance rings true and clear.
Village Voice
Sam Weisberg
It ultimately succumbs to the bland, sentimental uplift we've come to expect from such outings.
Variety
Justin Chang
There remains a nagging tidiness to the whole endeavor that leaves a strained, cloying aftertaste.
Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Farber
Talented young performers can help to make a spotty story watchable.
Cinemacy
Morgan Rojas
If you're interested in a film for character study, The Road Within is a good start.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
The formulaic storyline tends to trivialize their afflictions by settling for sentimental clichs.
