Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Makes you wish Clark had quit trying to cook up adventures for his cast and made a straight documentary instead.
– Colin Covert,

rotten:
Tries to say something profound about these kids, while oversimplifying the world around them to the point of ridiculousness.
– Peter Hartlaub,
San Francisco Chronicle,

fresh:
Steeped in urban-youth woes but gets a bounce from Clark's sense of humor and hope.
– Bruce Westbrook,

rotten:
The main characters may be refreshingly cliche-free, but almost everyone they meet in Beverly Hills is a stilted cartoon.
– Ty Burr,

rotten:
What might have been a fascinating, intimate portrait turns into something much less compelling when Clark tries to impose a sex-and-action-packed narrative on the proceedings.
