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.

Film Inquiry

Reach is a thoroughly teen movie - its maturity and proficiency are outstripped by its desire and ambition.

Common Sense Media

Uneven drama about bullying, suicide can be preachy.

Rated: 2/5

Film Threat

Coupled with a strong, charismatic cast and intelligent dialogue, this is a relatively original coming-of-age story.

Rated: B+

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

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.

I liked it. Calm, kind of low key, then a really stunning twist.
