      Jonathan Foreman New York Post Much of the resulting material is very funny, though there are a few times when the filmmakers patronize or mock their subjects in a way that makes you uncomfortable. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 7, 2001 Full Review Dave Kehr New York Times [A] casually shot and loosely assembled film. Rated: 2/5 Sep 7, 2001 Full Review Kevin Maynard Mr. Showbiz A compelling examination of masculinity and machismo. Sep 6, 2001 Full Review Martin Scribbs Low IQ Canadian Self-important knuckleheads bloviate on club life. Though docs are reknown as tools to create empathy, Bounce merely confirms the worst prejudices of its audience. Sep 26, 2004 Full Review Doris Toumarkine Film Journal International Bouncing here doesn't look like fun, but the film is. Dec 9, 2001 Full Review Christopher Null Filmcritic.com After about half an hour, looking at wounds and comparing workout rituals gets a bit tedious.
