Wow!! These guys make Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas look like child's play... But then you look below the surface, you realize that from the opening frame, there is more here than meets the eye.

| Nov 26, 2019

An emotionally draining yet compellingly vivid drama about the death of dreams.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jun 28, 2019

Director Mark Pellington creates complex characters in his new thriller I Melt With You, but unfortunately fails to deliver a realistic, intriguing story.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Feb 11, 2013

Has the look of a John Cassavetes film, but with wimpy, colorless characters and a lot more drugs, death and color.

| Original Score: C | Mar 24, 2012

Former porn star Sasha Grey turns up in a small role, and I daresay that the blunt, single-syllable scripts employed in her erotic films were Oscar-worthy compared to this drivel.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 16, 2012

The best-looking bad film of 2011, I Melt with You squanders a fine acting quartet with self-indulgent existential angst among characters who are impossible to like.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Dec 31, 2011

Laughably awful melodrama.

| Dec 30, 2011

It really is good, albeit in ways that are different from other movies.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 22, 2011

Whether you're male or female, going through a mid-life crisis is no picnic. But watching the way it's depicted in 'I Melt with You' may be even worse.

| Dec 22, 2011

Instead of sympathizing with these jackasses, one wants to scream exactly what they don't want to hear: "Oh, grow up."

| Dec 15, 2011

This is meant to be probing and piercing, and it is merely rancid, shallow and bilious.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Dec 12, 2011

Picture the anti-drug egg commercial from the 80s. "This is your brain. This is 'I Melt With You.' This is your brain on 'I Melt With You.'" Get it?

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 10, 2011

The actual result is sad, pathetic, anxious, and depressing.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 9, 2011

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 9, 2011

The movie captures, as well as any other, the feeling of partying into oblivion, minus the next-morning internal pitchfork stabs. Think of a wild friend you wouldn't want to emulate but can't let go of.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 9, 2011

A fanfare for the common jerk that taints every '80s-era alt-rock soundtrack tune it touches, "I Melt With You" assuredly marks itself as one of 2011's most ludicrous releases.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 9, 2011

By the end, you feel nothing, not even contempt.

Good Lord, is this what's waiting on the other side of 40?

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 8, 2011

If it weren't played so very straight, this jaw-dropping thriller might pass for an accurate satire of Hollywood self-indulgence. Instead, it serves as a prime example.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 8, 2011

Although a stark performative moment here and a cold, sexy shot there slip through, all of the film's lesser ambitions are undone by its most risible one - to be serious, and thus be taken seriously.
