    San Francisco Chronicle | Mick LaSalle

    A poignant, quirky and effective alternative to the usual soulless, computer-generated summer fare. Read full review

    L.A. Weekly | F. X. Feeney

    Lyrical and funny, Full Grown Men is a tough-minded film about the need to grow up. Read full review

    The Onion A.V. Club | Noel Murray

    Full Grown Men often becomes as intolerably silly as the twee Amerindies it's reacting to. Read full review

    Miami Herald | Rene Rodriguez

    Full Grown Men marks the feature debut of director David Munro, who was born and raised in Miami and shoots Florida like a native. Read full review

    New York Post | Lou Lumenick

    Nicely photographed and has impressive sets; too bad there's so little going on that it seems long even at 78 minutes. Read full review

    The New York Times | Stephen Holden

    This candy-colored movie, whose soft hues match the colored cereal loops that Alby devours at his mother's house, is a post-Freudian fable that wants to be a kind of anti-"Wizard of Oz" for a culture inundated with toys and toons. Read full review
