Afterschool Ratings & Reviews
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
The film examines such relevant issues as violence in school, voyeurism, and abuse.
Cinematical
William Goss
When not downright creepy, it's quietly damning of an administration willing to point all the wrong fingers and play up all the wrong angles before brushing the matter aside.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
This is a little movie well worth checking out. The performances are very natural, and the themes are enticingly provocative.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
It's both a supremely controlled exercise in form and tone and an intriguing exploration of the ways new technology intersects with age-old questions of dominance, control and individuality, particularly in the school setting.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
Anthony Campos (who was 24 when he made this jolting pic) captures the numbing psychic scramble that just might cause the YouTube generation to go morally haywire. Or become filmmakers.
NewsBlaze
Kam Williams
Whatever happened to the analog days when kids found contentment by cramming phone booths, sitting on flagpoles or simply going steady?
ColeSmithey.com
Cole Smithey
Antonio Campos's character study of a prep school social misfit named Robert (Ezra Miller) is an intimate psychological journey into a coded juvenile mindset.
Boxoffice Magazine
Cole Hornaday
Perhaps it is the intent of Afterschool, to create such a distancing effect the viewer is forced to observe, perhaps even critique these young people's experience. If this is the case, Afterschool is one long period of detention.
Philadelphia City Paper
Sam Adams
Campos has developed a style of his own, one that owes as much to video installations as it does to cinematic narrative.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Though thin on story, the film shows poise and vision, using bleak cinema-realite techniques with chilling effect. Campos promises to be heard from again.
New York Times
Neil Genzlinger
Those with the patience to wait out Mr. Campos's overindulgences will definitely leave Afterschool unnerved, which is probably exactly what he had in mind.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
The passing of time and the evolution of technology may give it an expiration date, but more likely, Campos' film stands to be an essential document of what it was like to be a young person in the late '00s.
CampBlood.org
Brian Juergens
Deserves credit for managing to make prep school seem like the most hellish place on the planet, but is at some points hard to watch for all the wrong reasons.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Afterschool, the almost frighteningly accomplished first feature made by Antonio Campos when he was 24, is high school as horror show.
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
The fact that this is a film of few words only adds to its hypnotic, relentless pull.
The Hollywood Reporter
Deborah Young
A morbidly fascinating prep school tragedy which also is a stylistically uncompromisingly vision of hypocritical America.
Variety
Justin Chang
Unsettles without illuminating, marred by narcotic pacing and a blank lead performance.
Film-Forward.com
Kent Turner
[Director] Campos certainly demands your attention, and has it for most of the film.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
Once made ... Afterschool proceeds to regurgitate its thesis with all the grace of a lumberjack leveling a redwood.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
This ain't Elephant, even if it looks like one.
