Boys and Girls Reviews
Top Critic
The cast is so charming and assured that it puts across most of this with a reasonable amount of conviction.
This is less a movie than a casting call -- just round up a crowd of pretty young faces, fresh yet still familiar, and call it a job well done.

Compared to the wisdom and wickedness of High Fidelity, [Boys and Girls] is such a slight movie.

[Claire Forlani] is way too classy for this sort of film.
Approaches such niceties as construction and character motivation with a decidedly wanton shrug.
Boys and Girls breezes through overly-familiar territory.

The best thing that can be said about Boys and Girls is that it is studiously inoffensive.

One moment it is clever and fresh, and the next it becomes stupid.
The larger motions [Boys and Girls] goes through are oh-so-tiresomely familiar.
You might wish for some of the grosser excesses of Road Trip or American Pie just to stay awake.
If only Boys and Girls would trust its audience more by not pandering to the less intuitive among us.
Robert Iscove pads the slight script with montages of San Francisco.
| Original Score: 2/4
[Boys and Girls] loses points for having the dreaded public place love pronouncement finale.
A sure-fire date night movie, proves to be more than that and represents a career boost to all its young people on both sides of the camera.

Truly appalling, repetitive, utterly predictable film.
