Mid90s's reviews
Media reviews
The Hollywood Reporter
"The picture flirts with melodrama, but no more than actual adolescence does ? and then ends, having given us just enough structure to be called a movie".
Variety
"'mid90s', though made by a Hollywood star, isn?t a nostalgic indie fable in gritty skate-punk drag. It?s something smaller and purer: a slice of street life made up of skittery moments that achieve a bone-deep reality".
Indiewire
It's an ideal scenario to explore the winding roads of teenage maturity and so that filmmaker shows his potential without exceeding in ambition's terms.
Fotogramas
A movie that breaths authenticity in each frame. 'Mid90s' is, with no doubt, the presentation of the public from a director with many things to say.
The Washington Post
At 84 minutes long, ?Mid90s? can?t be described as a fully realized film; it?s more of a fragment, ending on a cheerfully liberated but not particularly resolved note. But that?s in keeping with the modest tonalities of a film that doesn?t burst with ambition, but never overreaches either.
El País
"Hill has made a movie that seems to present nothing (or at least just a little), and, despite this, the movie has everything. The decorations are few and well-placed [...] but its strong arm is the precision in the observation and a bet for the synthesis".
Cinemanía
Jonah Hill shines as director. The actor debuts behind the camera with a little generational jewel.
The Guardian
"Skaters vie for status in a directorial debut that mixes Scorsese-like extravagance with moments of smartly observed subtlety".
The Playlist
It worries so much for the references and proper cinematographic influences that doesn't reach an emotive dimension.
