Critic Reviews

For all its nonstop energy and high spirits, Can't Hardly Wait allows its characters to emerge as fully dimensional individuals; they've been written with care and perception and played with equal aplomb by a roster of talented young actors.Full Review

Kevin Thomas
Los Angeles Times

Can't Hardly Wait has freshness, comic invention and an engaging romantic spirit.Full Review

Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle

[The writers/directors] show easygoing humor and the wisdom to borrow well. Their film at various times recalls tenderhearted coming-of-age comedies from "American Graffiti" onward, with strong homage to the works of Cameron Crowe, Amy Heckerling and John Hughes.Full Review

Elvis Mitchell
The New York Times

But the film deserves credit, both for its breezy pacing and its uncommon tendency to make its characters smarter and geekier than they might have been.Full Review

Stephen Thompson
The Onion (A.V. Club)

Nobody's going to give this one an Oscar, sure, but as far as the venerable teen sex comedy goes, this one actually makes it to third base.Full Review
