Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Despite its pluses, "Indignation" often plays like a heavy handed after-school special. It's not so much indignant as it is tedious.
– Adam Graham,
Detroit News,

fresh:
"Indignation" is an elegant debut for longtime producer Schamus; a visit to the past, with both sunshine and darkness.
– Moira MacDonald,

fresh:
With its mature perspective on distant formative years, the film feels true to the spirit of Roth; little from the deep wellsprings of the great novelist's fiction is lost in translation.
– Colin Covert,
Minneapolis Star Tribune,

rotten:
Writer and director James Schamus turns Indignation into a minor period piece, a precise but seemingly pointless evocation of the stultifying conventionalism of an American university campus in the 1950s.
– Kate Taylor,
Globe and Mail,

rotten:
Schamus gets the suffocating look of 1951 American academia just right, with its sweaters and skirts, and with a rose motif worthy of Citizen Kane. What's missing is any real drama or purpose.
