Critics Consensus

An amusingly perceptive comedy about the push and pull of friendship, Sacramento glows with charm even when its characters drive each other mad.

“Sacramento” might not be about California’s capital per se, but it perfectly reflects the latent magic so many people have experienced in the city it’s named for, and the bonds people forge there.

Angarano has the showpiece role, but it’s Cera who proves himself, more than ever, to be a major actor.

Los Angeles Times

The prickly comedy of male-pattern personality collapse gives way to wisdom, something that “Sacramento” has in abundance.

It’s the sort of film that makes me want to spend more time with these people, which is never a bad thing.

Here, the jokes will still make you laugh out loud, but it all feels pretty grounded.

As someone from Sacramento, hoping this would be a mini tribute to this blossoming city, there was not much Sacramento in it. 95% of the scenes were clearly filmed in studios in LA with a few external shots taken while driving a car.

Not one I would watch again. I went to see what landmarks were used in Sacramento since I have lived here for 70 years. The storyline was not compelling, and the acting was sub par. One good point is that Kristen Stewart had a very minor roll, since she is a terrible actress anyway. Michael Cera did a good job and was the redeeming quality.
