David Germain Associated Press Sleepover objectifies early teenage girls in a manner that's disagreeable and indelicate at best, cheap and vulgar at worst. Jan 17, 2018 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Not for younger kids, despite its PG rating. Rated: 1/5 Dec 28, 2010 Full Review Empire Magazine Rated: 1/5 Apr 1, 2006 Full Review Eddie Harrison The List Little more than a hurried photocopy of the far superior Lindsay Lohan vehicle Mean Girls. Rated: 1/5 Apr 23, 2019 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Utterly harmless but also utterly forgettable, Sleepover is only fascinating when it comes to poring over its cast list years down the road: Steve Carell, Brie Larson, and more. Rated: 2/4 Dec 29, 2018 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed Had me near tears. Not good tears, but painful tears. Apr 29, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews

Tim M Too edgy for kids and too juvenile for teens, Sleepover will appeal to no one en route to a forgettable experience. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/16/24 Full Review Steve D Even the kids will find it thin. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/30/23 Full Review Kaia W I mean it wasnt terrible but I find the age gaps a little concerning? I diddnt grow up in america so I dont know the school system but as a 15 year old girl myself I think it's kinda weird because that dude looks alot older? Also what's with the name Yancy? The redhead was literally nowhere to be seen half the time and it's so unrealistic like theres no way the dad was oblivious to the whole situation, also how did they just climb into those boxes like surely they would've shut it from the outside not just let it swing open anytime, I think I'm overthinking this but still, maybe I'm being to judgemental and it's just a alright film about being a tween 🤷‍♀️, I will say I cried at the end because I had to move across the country away from my bestfriend not to long ago so I know what it's like and it's not easy. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/29/23 Full Review Meadow J this movie sucks! so i couldent finsh the last 20 minutes cus it is such a waste of time, instead of watching this watch something that u know isnt gonna waste your time. Also i skipped to the end and it was so bad! dont recomend Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/11/23 Full Review Alex A My friend Julia almost threw up. Steve was absolutely vile, especially when he said "she grew up nice" Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review red t It was so average it's not even worth writing this almost. The acting is passable. Alexa unfortunately is not a very good actress but she is lucky everyone else around her is at least average and makes her better. When she is by herself she isn't that good. Most of the characters are generic and forgettable with jokes that fall flat. The cinematography is just ok along with a generic mid 2000's dated soundtrack. The editing & pacing are just ok also as nothing really lingers and it moves quick but never builds investment. This is so bland it isn't worth watching almost unless you grew up with it for nostalgia. Besides that skip this. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
