CRITICS OF "Pay It Forward"

TheMovieReport.com

There is a clear-cut difference between 'Oscar bait' and 'Oscar worthy,' which Mimi Leder's sentimental crock of a drama illustrates all too well.

October 14, 2007

Globe and Mail

Less a worthy achievement than a nice try.

March 22, 2002

Common Sense Media

A bit syrupy, but sentimental teens may enjoy it.

December 27, 2010

Film.com

If a movie can coax tears out of me, touch me in a way that the tears flow naturally, more power to it. But stealing my tears by beating me over the head with manipulated schmaltz is a cheat.

January 01, 2000

Bangor Daily News (Maine)

The film seems manufactured to furrow a cynic's brow before bringing up their lunch.

October 18, 2007

Filmcritic.com

Ironic, isn't it, that a film about human decency takes place in Vegas?

June 23, 2008

Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

It is a movie that will not only find but charm -- or should we say con? -- a certain kind of audience.

January 29, 2005

One Guy's Opinion

Despite a ton of good intentions, the picture is numbingly obvious and crushingly sentimental.

December 06, 2005

Resource

Entertainment Weekly

Unceasingly manipulative.

January 01, 2000

Resource

Minneapolis Star Tribune

Spacey and Hunt create interestingly layered characters who are hiding parts of themselves from themselves. And come Oscar time, Osment once again may be saying, 'I see tuxedoed people.'

November 06, 2002

Resource

New York Magazine/Vulture

With its smorgasbord of moralizings, Pay It Forward is a confusing welter of sentiment.

June 25, 2001

Rolling Stone

Not since Gump has there been such a pandering, faux-virtuous package of populist pap for Hollywood to shove in the faces of electioneering politicos and say: Look, we don't just market unwholesome swill to families, we market wholesome swill, too.
