Review For Project X |
"Project X" is that beau who sets off warning bells when he's there to date your little girl. You won't want to let her out the door with this creep. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service
This is a film desperately in need of a McLovin. Also, jokes would help. And comedic chemistry between the actors. And an ending that isn't a bolted-on cop-out. Save yourselves. It's too late for me. Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune
The movie has all the heft of a tweet, but Philips has made it look pimp and, until the police end the party, Project X really is a riot. Peter Travers-Rolling Stone
Ultimately, Project X is an example of why gimmicks rarely work, especially once the new shine has worn off. James Berardinelli-ReelViews
"Project X" bears a cravenly piggish attitude toward rewarding socially unacceptable behavior that feels unseemly rather than exciting, so-what rather than so-funny and obvious instead of new. Robert Abele-Los Angeles Times
"There's a midget in the oven!" is about as inspired as the dialogue and set pieces get in this queasy-making entertainment about a 17-year-old dude's birthday bacchanalia. Melissa Anderson-Village Voice
Say what you want about Project X (and people have), but there's a decent idea behind it. Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor
Project X misses the mark some of the time, but makes up for it by hosting the party of the decade. Christian Law-We Got This Covered
Unlike prior 'house party' movies, Project X says nothing meaningful about its subject matter and, instead, paints teens as unlikeable and reckless automatons. Ben Kendrick-ScreenRant
Project X misses the mark some of the time, but makes up for it by hosting the party of the decade. Kristal Cooper-We Got This Covered
There'll be many middle-aged, middle class haters declaring it morally bankrupt, but most will be able to file it under 'Guilty Pleasures' alongside Jackass, Bachelor Party and...er...forcing your pet to dance on its hind legs. Matt Looker-TheShiznit.co.uk
It wants to be the ultimate party movie, but its mean-spirited nastiness, dedication to shock-value humor, and lack of any kind of base-level humanity proves that it's really the ultimate teensploitation film. Eric Melin-Scene-Stealers.com
An enjoyable, if very sloppy, jaunt into total anarchy, Project X isn't a film about morals, but what happens when all rules are thrown out the window. R. L. Shaffer-IGN DVD
The movie is every bit as bad as the trailer made it out to be. (Blu-ray edition) John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
It's kind of like reality TV. You get what you pay for. John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
Laughs? Just one or two chuckles. Acting? Pretty flat. X stands for Xcuse to shrug off empty-spectacle moviemaking as awesome partying for Hollywood's coveted teen demographic. X marks that Xtremely cynical profiteering spot atop the box office. Brian Gibson-Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada)
Except for bits concerning the dog, I didn't hear myself laughing. Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com
If you don't mind the adolescent male point-of view (read: constant objectifying of the opposite sex) there's plenty to enjoy here. Simon Weaving-Screenwize
The party won't stop, even though you want it to. Jeff Bayer-The Scorecard Review
Overloaded with foul language, gratuitous nudity, obnoxious characters, and the sub-standard cinematography of the "found footage" style.... But damn if it's not entertaining. Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune
A bad-taste comedy with energy and anarchy to spare -- maybe too much of both Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit
An unhealthy strain of misogyny runs through the dialogue, and the film- makers' unquestioning acceptance of high-school one-upmanship fairly turns the stomach. Donald Clarke-Irish Times
Although much of this obvious yet ingenious film is filler, it may be a game-changer in its genre, and its fiery, almost apocalyptic final act recalls the liberating anarchy of the great 'Rock 'n' Roll High School.' John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
... a lame, laughless, pathetic little comedy. Jim Lane-Sacramento News & Review
