There isn't a single believable second in this film with the structure and tone of a sincere romantic comedy is a problem even Captain Kirk would have trouble solving.

A reference-laden but emotionally thin relationship comedy.

A witty comedy that glows with self-deprecating humour.

Think of Free Enterprise as something along the lines of, When Harry Met Lieutenant Uhura.

...uniformly superb performances...

Facile but fun, Free Enterprise is essentially a harmless goof that packs a bit more resonance than you'd expect.

A worthwhile entry in the large pool of coming-of-age comedies, bound to be a hoot for Trekkies, an amusing ride for others.

When compared to other entries from the recent crop of new filmmakers crafting movies about their lives, Free Enterprise stands out as one of the most entertaining and least pretentious efforts.

A celebration of risk-taking in the spirit of the heroism of Captain Kirk.

The fun of Free Enterprise, which occasionally runs a bit thin but is mostly sustained by the filmmakers' verve and wit, lies in its many visual and verbal references to popular culture trivia.

Quick, smart, ironic fare.

Funny and thought-provoking, Free Enterprise strikes home with its well-deserved skewering of Gen X obsessions, compulsions, and angst.
