Rex Reed Observer In spite of the harrowing details, the film builds compassion for even the most disturbing characters and scenes. Rated: 3/4 Feb 17, 2016 Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times Although Bad Hurt traffics in tough material, it is filled with little moments of heart. Rated: 3.5/4 Feb 12, 2016 Full Review Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times Although affecting and well acted, the family drama "Bad Hurt" is too airless and depressing to fully engage. Feb 11, 2016 Full Review Mae Abdulbaki Punch Drunk Critics Bad Hurt is a character-driven story with a great ensemble cast and some good emotional beats. Rated: 3/5 Aug 14, 2018 Full Review Jared Mobarak The Film Stage [Bad Hurt shows] the truth is loud, violent, and unpredictable. Rated: B- Feb 19, 2016 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Despite some powerful moments as the characters work through various demons and secrets, the film feels more contrived than authentic, compromising the emotional impact.

Audience Member I was in this for Theo Rossi, but not a bad movie. I felt uncomfortable and sad the entire time but I was probably supposed to. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Just unwatchable rubbish. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member "AUTHENTIC | DEPRESSING | INTENSE | POWERFUL" (94-out-of-100) Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Extremely melodramatic, this is one of those films that blasts characters with so much misery that it feels contrived and inauthentic. It's not helped by over-the-top performances that are out of a stageplay, bordering on unintentional comedy. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member An explosive family drama whose intense performances can't always compensate for such a heavy-handed scenario, Bad Hurt nonetheless marks a promising directorial debut from playwright Mark Kemble. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazing. I got to see it at the Berkshire Film Festival Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
