Hot Summer Nights is unconventionally amusing, spits in the face of its own flaws and somehow manages to impress by atmospherically rendering the emotions tied to the trappings of young adulthood. At it’s best, Hot Summer Nights is an admirable attempt at summertime antics void of a happy ending.

Elijah Bynum’s debut embracing every last cliche it can find in a perverse attempt to forge its own identity. It’s a noble effort that comes up empty. Instead of something original, we’re left with a sweaty pastiche that shares its protagonist’s desire to be all things to all people, only to wind up losing any sense of itself along the way.

Greatest movie ever made. Perfect cast, perfect soundtrack, and part of the plot factors around T2: Judgement Day, which is cool.

This is a fantastic movie! It's a low budget film with phenomena young actors and a great soundtrack, plus it's set in the early 90's! It's not a high budget film, but it maximizes its capabilities and for that, I give it a 10. Definitely worth a watch!

I did not even read any of the so-called "expert" reviews that seem to trash this movie. I gave it 8/10 because once it grips you it has you until the very end. Good story (based on true story), good acting, well done. I have recommended it to several friends. they all liked it too.

Hot summer nights is a mildly disappointing film, it has great cinematography and for the most part solid performances but the script is very weak and cliche. In the end I had a good time but definitely on the lower half of A24’s great filmography

when the face pace moment comes, it's really good. but when the slow pace comes, it becomes sooooo draggy and boring.

Hot Summer Nights is pretty much just a showcase for Timothee Chalamet. I want to say that he saved this dry, forgettable mess, but he did not.
