Critics Consensus

Featuring a bewildering array of talented actors pummeled by disjointed direction and a dull, hackneyed script, Reach Me is so fundamentally misbegotten that its title reads more like a threat.

Richard Roeper

Chicago Sun-Times

At times "Reach Me" is undeniably intriguing, mostly because it's just so weird and disconnected. Eventually, though, it just becomes tiresome.

Rated: 2/4

Hollywood Reporter

Nothing in the proceedings is remotely convincing, let alone entertaining.

Once you've sunk into the entirely warped groove of "Reach Me" you're almost eager to experience the next offense against aesthetics and/or common sense it is poised to commit.

Rated: 1/4

Sadly, Collection doesn't even succeed on a visual level and it feels as if Herzfeld and the producers went for bargain basement tech credits in order to bring the film to the screen.

Rated: 1/5

Epoch Times

It's 'Pulp Fiction' lite with blaxploitation aspects. Regardless, a movie about beating addictions, getting more out of life, and being a better person, is a good thing.

Rated: 3/5

Cinemalogue

The jokes aren't funny and the earnest stabs at emotional sincerity ring false in this ensemble melodrama.

One of the worst movies ever made. The writing and story is so cringe. The characters are as well. Dialogue is awful and pacing sucks. Pointless film.

I so enjoyed this movie that I was amazed to come here and see the negative reviews. I thought it was very well made, and if I had any criticism it might be that it was too short.

With a cast ensemble like this one, Reach Me should have been a blockbuster hit if not movie of the year. Unfortunately though, it suffers from terrible writing in its disconnected stories and the acting was quite bland for some big Hollywood names. This drama is not worth the time nor effort to sit and watch.

David O'Hara is good in this, otherwise its a censored Pulp Fiction meeting Magnolia on a rainy day.

Assured, smart, multi-character comedy. Manages to stay consistently intriguing and connected. Great use of music. Meaning of it all may not be immediately obvious, but the comedy is clever and the cast, cameos included, are wonderful. In a word, enjoyable.
