Nebraska City, summer of 1991. Inseparable best friends AJ (Conor Sherry, "Are You Afraid of the Dark?," "The Terminal List") and Moose (Gabriel LaBelle, "The Fabelmans") seize the opportunity to run the local pool's rundown snack shack after their plan to gamble on dog races and sell home-brewed beer goes down the drain. Dreaming of striking it rich, things take an unexpected turn when they meet summer visitor Brooke (Mika Abdalla, "Sex Appeal," "SWAT"), an effortlessly cool lifeguard who puts their big summer plans, and their friendship, at risk.

Critics Consensus

Deftly directed by Adam Rehmeier, Snack Shack is a period-set coming-of-age comedy that's witty and charming enough to largely transcend its lack of originality.

J. Kim Murphy

Variety

Armed with a talented cast, writer-director Adam Rehmeier’s 1991-set feature happily squares itself in a tradition of teenage hedonism and broad learning opportunities, settling into a generic but warm glow.

Matt Schimkowitz

AV Club

Even with the script’s problems, the film is kinetic, and as in Dinner In America, Rehmeier gets terrific performances from his cast.

Rated: C

Calum Marsh

New York Times

With its rambling momentum and quick-witted, almost musical dialogue, it feels less like “Superbad” than a Robert Altman movie, sort of like a pint-size “California Split.”

Smartly, Snack Shack doesn’t try too hard to lecture or give us hard-earned wisdom and lets their characters screw up as much as it lets them win.

Enjoyed the fun of it! The swearing wasn't necessary though and detracted from the fun.

Mr. Hollywood

A good enough coming an age story and nostalgia for those who grew up in the 90s before smart phones and Internet in every home. Those were the best of times where you could mess up and not have it recorded online for life. Worth a watch

While it bends on occasion towards trope, the early 90s vibe saturates every scheme, every antic, with the quintessential era emotional gut punch. Gabriel LaBelle, near unrecognizable following The Fabelmans, and Conor Sherry lead with the aplomb of film veterans, and Nick Robinson brings the coming of age crown he aptly earned in Kings of Summer. I cant recall the last time I sat in theater filled with that much consistent laughter throughout the crowd. This original content would die on the streaming vine amongst the endless jumble of algorithms and scrolling, thanks Paramount and MRC for giving this the theatrical run.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Its not funny which I was expecting but entertaining and has a surprisingly heartfelt ending. Think Superbad meets dazed and confused.

The use of the F word was WAY OVER USED!!!! The amount of usage of the word brought down the enjoyment and credibility of the movie. Being from the Nebraska City/Sidney/Peru area, we enjoyed seeing familiar scenes. But I suggest cleaning up the language.
