Critic Reviews

The New York Times - Nathan Lee

A spry teenage comedy that gets everything right, Stick It takes the usual batch of underdogs, dirt bags, mean girls and bimbos and sends them somersaulting through happy clichés and unexpected invention. Read full review

San Francisco Chronicle - Peter Hartlaub

Much of the honest dialogue has the same feel as John Hughes' and Cameron Crowe's movies during their best years, while there's a half-serious hipness that recalls the first eight episodes of "The O.C." Read full review

New York Daily News - Jami Bernard

Peregrym's performance as fiery, troubled teen Haley Graham is a triumph of charisma over technique. Read full review

Boston Globe - Wesley Morris

Peregrym is like a secondhand Hilary Swank. She has a looser presence and might be a better actor, but since we already have Swank, finding out is not a priority. Read full review

Austin Chronicle - Marjorie Baumgarten

Like "Bring It On," Stick It is so much better than most of its insipid teen-movie peers yet like her earlier movie, Bendinger's new one is also not all it might be. Read full review

USA Today - Claudia Puig

Bridges actually does a fine job in an uninteresting role. But this chick flick is all about the attitudinal teenagers. Read full review

New York Post - Kyle Smith

Rarely is a sports movie so inept that it can't even make its central figure likable. Read full review

I saw this while drunk and loved every second of it, otherwise, I probably would have had some grips with it that would have bumped it down to a 6. All in all, its a fun romp with friends when you're all bored. I came for Jeff Bridges' charm, but I stayed for Vanessa Lengies "fantastic"I saw this while drunk and loved every second of it, otherwise, I probably would have had some grips with it that would have bumped it down to a 6. All in all, its a fun romp with friends when you're all bored. I came for Jeff Bridges' charm, but I stayed for Vanessa Lengies "fantastic" dialogue, and now she's my waifu. I still can't believe this came out in 2006, it feels like a pure 90's flick. Cheers!… Expand
