Drillbit Taylor Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
The action sags in the middle, but director Steven Brill gets mileage out of some funny cameos and good one-liners.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
The constant fighting and punching gets nastier and less funny, the film drags on for far too long, and the ending is uninspired and predictable.
UGO
Keith Uhlich
Imagine Curly Sue, but McLovin-ized.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
If anything, this film is more Weird Science or One Crazy Summer then it is Ferris Bueller's Day Off or Superbad.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Drillbit Taylor is as clunky and humorless as its title.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Maybe I should have bought popcorn; this movie undoubtedly goes down better when it's partially drowned out by munching.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
Despite sharing a producer in comedy-genius-of-the-moment Judd Apatow, a co-writer in Seth Rogen and somewhat similar territory, Drillbit Taylor doesn't measure up to the raunchy classic that gave the world McLovin.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Without focus, without apparent intention, the movie floats along, stringing various incidents together, and in the end seems much longer than it is. It feels like 2 1/2 hours.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
Wilson gets by on his delivery and his demeanor. It doesn't matter what he says; it's how he says it.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Too much of Drillbit Taylor is the kind of formulaic free-for-all that does Wilson no good, nor anybody else.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Trying to mix farce with heart, Drillbit Taylor is instead as soulful as Kenny G and as wacky as public television.
Chicago Sun-Times
Darel Jevens
It's no wedgie, but after a while Drillbit Taylor feels like its own form of torment.
Film Journal International
Katey Rich
An uneven, stolidly traditional comedy.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Even if this movie doesn't quite hit the highs of its predecessor, it's nice to know that there are still filmmakers ready to respect the eternal struggles of freaks and geeks.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
Some of the movie's problems stem from the fact that the filmmakers can't seem to decide whose story it is, with a constant narrative tug of war between Wade and Ryan's battle for survival and Drillbit's dreams of escaping to Canada.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
Watching kids being forced to pee on each other isn't actually funny. Neither is watching those same kids get chased down by a pair of thugs in a sports car.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Overly familiar, underwhelmingly funny and thoroughly predictable, Taylor is a one-joke movie that doesn't even get that one joke right.
Dallas Morning News
Matt Weitz
The jokes are funny, the acting is good (especially the three freshmen) and the film has an underlying sweetness that harkens back to 2004's Without a Paddle, which was also directed by Mr. Brill.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
The sentimentality quotient for this film is set too high.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
The makers of Drillbit Taylor aren't so much interested in a movie about the tyranny of bullies as they are completely turned on by the violence they inflict.
