Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Zwigoff pulls off something in Ghost World that seems a minor miracle -- he creates someone with a complex inner life.
– Manohla Dargis,
L.A. Weekly,
21 Apr 2003
fresh:
By sharp turns poignant, disturbing and hysterically funny.
– Ken Eisner,
Variety,

fresh:
Most of Ghost World is funny, but the laughs are inextricably tied to the painful alienation and self-loathing that comes with living on society's fringes.
– Scott Tobias,
AV Club,
14 Jul 2010
fresh:
See it for Birch's hostile stare and Johansson's devastating monotone.
– David Denby,
New Yorker,
12 Apr 2013
fresh:
The greatest distinction of "Ghost World" is its singular spirit. Here's a dark, deadpan comedy about alienated kids that manages to be smart, surpassingly odd, extremely funny and mysteriously endearing at the same time.
