Entertainment Reviews:
[U]nforced, unhurried, unpretentious....This story of adolescents on the brink of adulthood is refreshingly, and endearingly, unlike the overheated features that have come to define the genre.
Wall Street Journal
Only the opening conceit of a college essay Sutter needs to write reminds that what you're watching is a movie rather than a fleeting sense memory. Thankfully, it exists in more tangible form to be watched and rewatched.

What beautiful work by Shailene Woodley....It’s a wonderfully written role, and Woodley is brilliant in every second she is onscreen.
Chicago Sun-Times
4 stars out of 4 -- A lovely film about two high school seniors who look, speak and feel like real 18-year-old middle-American human beings.
RogerEbert.com
The movie wasn't smart enough to deal with the interesting protagonists it started with, and so it reverted to trope.

The Atlantic
What’s different, and irresistibly so, about THE SPECTACULAR NOW is the way that familiar romantic configuration has been rejuvenated by a healthy dose of authenticity.

Rating: 2.5/5 --
We need good films about teenagers, and The Spectacular Now isn't one of them.

Product Description:
Tim Tharp's unsentimental tale of adolescent frustration comes to the screen in this comedy-drama following the story of a sociable high-school senior whose self-delusion shattered by his emerging friendship with an unpopular classmate. Sutter Keely is one of the most popular kids in his class. Outgoing and fun-loving, he's completely oblivious as to what awaits him beyond high school. Lately, however, his drinking has started to become a problem. So when Sutter's girlfriend breaks things off, he reaches for the bottle without hesitation. Awakening in the grass under the gaze of studious, practical-minded sci-fi nerd Aimee Finicky, he isn't quite sure how he got into such a predicament. Over time, however, the two teens who couldn't be any more different on the surface realize they have more in common than either ever suspected. Miles Teller, Shailene Woodley, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead star.
