Critics Consensus

Mid90s tells a clear-eyed yet nostalgic coming-of-age tale that might mark the start of an auspicious new career for debuting writer-director Jonah Hill.

Kathleen Sachs

Chicago Reader

An earnest effort that nonetheless relies too heavily on gimmicks.

Simran Hans

Observer (UK)

The attempts at authentic stoner dialogue soon become tedious, with too little plot or character development grounding the inanity.

Rated: 2/5

Patrick Smith

Independent (UK)

Lending the film considerable ballast is an affecting performance by Sunny Suljic.

InSession Film

Mid90s struggles with an identity, but manages to be entertaining and exotic. The cloud of memories remind all of us of our youth and the life-or-death struggles we went through in order to be the adult at the end of that journey.

Rated: B+

Source (Scotland)

A sturdy feature that respectfully relies on visual storytelling, and has clearly also come from a place of passion.

Rated: 4/5

Vulnerable Man (Medium)

Jonah Hill’s directorial debut resonates on many levels with Millennials and finds a way to embrace a specific type of vulnerability.

Well acted by a young inexperienced cast and well directed. A good look into skateworld and coming of age in California.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Great coming of age movie. Absolutely loved a few songs in it by Trent Reznor. loved the atmosphere and ambience of this movie. Maybe its just me but most the coming age movies i watch are about girls, so it was interesting to see one about a boy. I really liked it, was interesting to see how much he got wrapped up in the nonsense of the older boys. Would recommend it to anybody who asked.

I honestly don't know wtf Jonah Hill did reading these other reviews but this is probably the best coming of age film I've seen. It's not too goofy and unrealistic like Good Boys or any of the romance centered ones, and it's not too over the top like Thirteen or even Kids (I still like the ladder film). The characters dialogue doesn't sound stupid and "rad". Has a fun vibe to it for some scenes, and a very sad one for others.
