Critic Reviews

  • Tom Keogh, Seattle Times

    Graduation, a borderline dramedy with somewhat interesting relationship crosscurrents among four friends facing life after high school, squanders audience goodwill with its tediously judgmental treatment of anyone who isn't flush with youthful promise.

  • Walter V. Addiego, San Francisco Chronicle

    Graduation isn't some daring amalgam of traditional movie categories; it's simply all over the place.

  • Austin Kennedy, Sin Magazine

    The movie is pretty dull and generic. None of the kids feel like real people, just cardboard cut-outs of stock characters.

  • Travis Nichols, Seattle Post-Intelligencer

    Unlike 2005's pitch-perfect teen heist movie Brick, Graduation misses nearly every note it tries to hit.
