Critic Reviews

Eric Campos

It's pretty basic here. You have a Bill Plympton movie. You know what to expect – complete rampant insanity from the mind of a mad genius. Read full review

Wesley Morris

If Plympton is making pastiche, he's also having a laugh at a universal experience that for a lot of people was probably pretty crummy. Apparently, it was a little crummier for him. Read full review

Michael Ordona

Smorgasbord of the bizarre. Hair High is not for everyone, but it's not like anything else out right now. Read full review

Joshua Land

Too glib to qualify as satire, Hair High nails the high school experience. Read full review

Dennis Harvey

While his static backgrounds and stuttering character movement aren't likely to win over traditional animation fans, Hair High reps the high end of this "Sick 'n' Twisted"-type toonery. Read full review

Neil Genzlinger

The terrain is so familiar that it has a slightly stifling effect, even in Mr. Plympton’s demented hands. We long ago loved these characters to death. Read full review

Sean Axmaker

When Plympton's freak flag flies, Hair High delivers the same whacked-out weirdness of his shorts. The rest of the film simply stretches out the simple premise and marks time between his ideas. Read full review
