The attempt is courageous, even if the result is wildly uneven.

| Original Score: C+ | Sep 5, 2002

For those who accept the offbeat premise, the film ultimately delivers a satisfying dramatic exploration of the ways we create ourselves.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 14, 2002

What makes the movie work is that the premise, which sounds like a comedy, is treated with the seriousness of life and death.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 13, 2002

Toback offers a complex, borderline campy, and oddly entertaining study of modern moral dilemmas.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 11, 2002

A crisply made movie that is no more than mildly amusing.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 9, 2002

A characteristically engorged and sloppy coming-of-age movie.

| Original Score: C- | Jul 2, 2002

Putting it all out there and shaping it into some kind of contained whole is something else again. Although that never quite happens here, there's plenty to appreciate.

In a summer of clones, Harvard Man is something rare and riveting: a wild ride that relies on more than special effects.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 1, 2002

This movie is so bad, that it's almost worth seeing because it's so bad.

Full Review | Jul 1, 2002

By turns pretentious, fascinating, ludicrous, provocative and vainglorious.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 28, 2002

It's exactly the kind of movie Toback's detractors always accuse him of making.

| Jun 28, 2002

A reality-snubbing hodgepodge.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 28, 2002

It has a caffeinated, sloppy brilliance, sparkling with ideas you wish had been developed with more care, but animated by an energy that puts the dutiful efforts of more disciplined grade-grubbers to shame.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jun 27, 2002

Characteristic of Toback in that there's no telling whether he doesn't care to wrestle his totems into any kind of meaningful order or if he simply doesn't know how.

Full Review | Jun 25, 2002

Has everything you could ever want from a Toback movie: lurid sex, shocking excess and an out-of- nowhere thoughtfulness that's not put on.
