Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
This superb and singular film catches not only the charm and tribal energy of the teen-age 1950s but also the listlessness and the resignation that underscored it all like an incessant bass line in one of the rock-'n'-roll songs of the period.
– Jay Cocks,
TIME Magazine,

fresh:
There is brilliant interplaying and underplaying, of script, performers and direction which will raise howls of laughter from audiences, yet never descends on the screen to overdone mugging, pratfall and other heavy-handed devices normally employed.

A brilliant work of popular art, it redefined nostalgia as a marketable commodity and established a new narrative style, with locale replacing plot, that has since been imitated to the point of ineffectiveness.
– Dave Kehr,

fresh:
The film that launched a thousand careers.

American Graffiti acts almost as a milestone to show us how far (and in many cases how tragically) we have come.
