What makes The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz great is also what makes it exasperating-namely its nonjudgmental dedication to the character's point of view, petty amoralities and all.

Dreyfuss would go on to bigger things, but not all of them better.

It's a little too sloppy, and occasionally too obvious, to qualify as a great film, but it's a good and entertaining one, and it leaves us thinking that Duddy Kravitz might amount to something after all, should he ever grow up.

An alternately sad and hilarious movie of dreams rampant.

The film has going for it a well-observed milieu, a rich gallery of colorful locals, and a wealth of incident that sometimes gets out of hand.

If acting alone could save Duddy Kravitz, it would be a good film, but acting cannot save a story as thin and threadbare as this.

Audience Reviews for The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz
-
Jul 18, 2013Considered one of the greats of Canadian cinema, "The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz" is a modest effort from director Ted Kotcheff that details the rise and fall of a young Jewish kid whose aspirations and greed end up cutting him off from his friends and family. One of the reasons why "The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz" is so successful is because of how it remains indifferent to the actions of its titular character, never showing him in a negative light even when it's clear that what he's doing isn't exactly morally sound. The performances are all brilliant, especially from Richard Dreyfuss, Jack Warden, Barry Pascal and Denhom Elliot, and overall, the film is an exceptional tale of how greed can fulfill one's dreams while simultaneously destroying everything else in their lives.Stephen E Super Reviewer

Jul 29, 2007It was quite a coup to get Dreyfuss for the role. I can't imagine anyone else doing as effective a job.John B Super Reviewer
