Pumpkin Reviews
I will acknowledge that I have yet to find any of my friends who've seen this film that truly embraced it on the level that I do.
| Original Score: 4.0/4.0 | Sep 1, 2020
Black comedy about disability full of profanity, sex.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 1, 2014
One of the worst films of 2002.

Rambling and diffuse, this debut film vacillates between the Farrelly brotthers' gross-out comedy and a softer, kinder message film, an incoherent blend that proves frustrating and not particularly enjoyable either.

Like a grinning Jack O' Lantern, its apparent glee is derived from a lobotomy, having had all its vital essence scooped out and discarded.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 17, 2003
Pumpkin is a movie that resists categorization, that manages wit, intelligence, audacity and pointed social commentary while still entertaining us with a terrifically bizarre combination of soapy, ultra-stylized satire and blackly comic fairytale.

Successfully blended satire, high camp and yet another sexual taboo into a really funny movie.

Although there are many juicy supporting performances, Christina Ricci owns this movie. What a wonderful talent, and what a maddening, but enjoyable film.

One of the most uneven motion pictures that I've had the displeasure of sitting through over the past few years.
| Original Score: 3/10 | Nov 8, 2002
...a pretentious mess...
| Original Score: 0/4 | Nov 8, 2002
Christina Ricci comedy about sympathy, hypocrisy and love is a misfire.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 7, 2002
By halfway through this picture I was beginning to hate it, and, of course, feeling guilty for it.... Then, miracle of miracles, the movie does a flip-flop.

Though Harris is affecting at times, he cannot overcome the sense that Pumpkin is a mere plot pawn for two directors with far less endearing disabilities.
| Nov 4, 2002
Ambitious but moth-eaten satire.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 10, 2002
A savage John Waters-like humor that dances on the edge of tastelessness without ever quite falling over.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 20, 2002
This low-rent -- and even lower-wit -- rip-off of the Farrelly brothers' oeuvre gets way too mushy -- and in a relatively short amount of time.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 20, 2002
