Courtney Howard Variety Its heart is in the right place when it comes to many of the boldly-portrayed sentiments, but it plays like a hokey after-school special rather than an alarming wake-up call. Oct 19, 2018 Full Review Eric D. Bernasek Film Inquiry Reach is a thoroughly teen movie - its maturity and proficiency are outstripped by its desire and ambition. Nov 11, 2018 Full Review Sandie Angulo Chen Common Sense Media Uneven drama about bullying, suicide can be preachy. Rated: 2/5 Oct 26, 2018 Full Review Bobby LePire Film Threat Coupled with a strong, charismatic cast and intelligent dialogue, this is a relatively original coming-of-age story. Rated: B+ Oct 19, 2018 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film It suffers from its strictly by-the-book approach and heavily mannered performances (especially from Fiore) which mean we're constantly aware that we're watching something artificial. Rated: 2/5 Jun 11, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Louie B Been a long time since I cried at a movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/24/24 Full Review Audience Member They had great material, great actors, potential for story, possibility to develop plot, and everything. But they shit! They could have created a great story among the main actors. They didn't have to kill the guy. They could have explained why the two stopped being best friends. Because the film did not explain, and if it showed what it was, it was worse than shit. Something dramatic could have happened. It is not the effects they put on the scenes that make something dramatic, but the story itself. What was missing a LOT. The dance could have twists, loves being discovered, couples formed, etc ... Did not explain the case of the nick with the boy who picked him up at home in the beginning ... very weak. To earn a zero score you need to improve a lot. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked it. Calm, kind of low key, then a really stunning twist. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
