Critic Reviews

It's instantly forgettable, but smooth fun most of the way.Full Review

Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle

Be Cool is not really cool as "Get Shorty" was, but it's entertaining, a frivolous cocktail rather than a vintage wine.Full Review

Kirk Honeycutt
The Hollywood Reporter

Despite a cast and production that seem to promise one of the year's first movies of any note, Cool never translates its promo-photo flashiness into authenticity on screen.Full Review

Mike Clark
USA Today

Be Cool more often evokes the image of a screenwriter furiously trying draft after draft to accommodate all the stars. Accommodating the audience becomes a distant priority.Full Review

Scott Tobias
The Onion (A.V. Club)

The hell of it is, Be Cool is tepid entertainment that could be cool if it spent less time entertaining us as if we were demanding a definition of rhythm.Full Review
