CRITICS OF "How to Deal"

Worcester Telegram & Gazette

[T]his is a movie that teenage girls -- and nearly no one else -- should enjoy.

January 02, 2004

Ebert & Roeper

I've seen a lot of dumb teen romances in the last couple years, but How to Deal, is a welcome exception.

July 21, 2003

Common Sense Media

Even Moore fans may find this hard to deal with.

December 24, 2010

Washington Post

Another soundtrack-driven, disposable, not entirely objectionable teen movie.

July 18, 2003

Resource

Apollo Guide

Will enthral pre-teen chippies with its wholesome, marshmallow-peep-sweet vacuous-ness.

February 13, 2004

Resource

Tyler Morning Telegraph (Texas)

Fails to acknowledge the real problems teenagers face.

September 20, 2004

eye WEEKLY

Overcrowded with characters and subplots, the film gives short shrift to the parts that should matter.

August 05, 2003

Resource

The Coast (Halifax, Nova Scotia)

In delivering its message of teen perseverence, How to Deal piles on "issues" without finding a reasonable connective narrative.

September 20, 2003

Washington Post

A bad, unimaginative story posing pretentiously as the very opposite.

July 18, 2003

Rolling Stone

The pop diva goes down with the bubbles in this hopelessly shallow soap opera.

July 31, 2003

Salon.com

Painless to watch, but it's marred by some significant flaws.

July 19, 2003

Resource

New York Times

After a while the bad lighting, graceless editing, sluggish dialogue and self-conscious performances begin to seem like marks of authenticity, as if the movie had been made not just for and about teenagers, but by them.
