Seems like the work of a novice, with self-conscious expository passages and emotionally false conversations.

Top Critic ...incest...pedophilia...the film seems to be nothing more than an attempt to affirm a sense of I'm-OK-you're-OK normality for any viewers with such issues in their own lives.

You watch this prurient would-be porn, treated with kid-glove 'sensitivity,' in a state of disbelief.
03/24/05
To consider Harry and Max as being about incestuous feelings would be shortchanging it, because the film is really about the evolving nature of love and the need to define it.

Top Critic The movie is a congeries of half-formed ideas about pansexuality and other social taboos, but Munch fails to accomplish what he seemingly sets out to do.
03/24/05
Top Critic The blurred boundary between intimacy and sexuality ... isn't broached with the sensitivity and maturity that it demands.
02/27/05
Harry and Max is writer-director Christopher Munch's seemingly candid exorcism of any number of self-consciously naughty fantasies.
02/19/05
Top Critic Chatty scenes ramble on and on, supporting characters are underdeveloped, and all the sibs' angst does little to make their tortured relationship very credible or interesting.
02/18/05
Director Christopher Munch deftly raises disturbing questions, but he fumbles badly when groping for answers.
02/18/05
Top Critic The film winds up dancing around the 500-lb gorilla in the middle of the room rather than facing the pathology of its real subject head-on.
02/18/05
There are brave, boundary-breaching movies, and there are mad, foolhardy ones. Harry and Max belongs to the latter breed.
02/17/05
Top Critic Intermittently insightful, but a disappointment from the talented Munch.
02/17/05
The emotional lives of the leads are as vacuous as a Joey Fatone B side.
02/15/05
Top Critic Perhaps the strangest element here isn't the narrative conceit itself, but the fact that director Munch handles it in such typically low-key, benevolently observant fashion.
