Critics Consensus

As pretentious as it is hopelessly clichéd, this Twelve is closer to zero.

Matt Singer

Give Schumacher credit for making a movie that is, at the very least, unique in its failure.

Rated: C

The film version of Twelve is quite the opposite of the book, a dull and thoughtless ride with a sad excuse for a climax.

Rated: 1.5/5

Overburdened with too many characters and a manufactured conclusion, "Twelve" wastes a solid performance by Chace Crawford.

Rated: 1.0/5

There are absolutely no surprises in "Twelve." None. And the characters are as familiar as the story--a stock collection of "prep school" males and females that look as if they've never sat through a class in their lives.

Rated: 5/10

If you make it through this movie you should get a medal. Unfortunately that wont replace the time you've lost.

The narrator was like listening to Sargent Joe Friday of Dragnet. I taught high school students for 21 years. No one in the movie even faintly resembled a real kid.

I couldn't finish the movie. I was bored to death with the narration. I only watched it because there were a couple good actors in it. Don't waste your time

Whether it's a overdose of drugs or a love letter to gangster flicks, for a movie holdin' The Burnin' Medallion Of Badness, this "Twelve" is closer to zero. Characters: 0.5/5 Story: 0/5 Acting: 0/5 Direction: 0/5 Cinematography: 0.5/5 Soundtrack: 0/5 Overall: 0.5/5

Not as bad as the reviews and ratings imply, but this film tries too hard to be significant. The voiceover takes away from the characters, handing us a super big slice of exposition pie. I think just muting Kiefer Sutherland would improve this movie a bit.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
