Reaction: There was really just a limited audience for this film. Maybe if we had made it on an even lower budget, it could have worked out, but instead we are looking at a small loss. It happens, and all we can try to do is learn from it.
"While the plot, what little of it there is, is unbelievable, the interaction and relationships between the characters are spot-on. When the kids are just hanging out or going to punk shows is when the film really works. - Vincent Kerr, Washington Post
"Some of the young cast really struggles with the angry, angst-driven material, leading to some very uneven performances. Surprisingly, the young actor who comes off best is pop star Harry Styles, but he can't save the ensemble himself." - Rick Green, New Yorker
"Ethan Hawke directs the film with a lot of energy, surprising given his last minute hiring. He leads his young actors well, even if some aren't quite able to believably do what the script asks of them." - Charles Triano, Los Angeles Times
