Critic Reviews for Banana Split

All Critics (53) | Top Critics (15) | Fresh (47) | Rotten (6)

  • What truly zings about Banana Split, though, is that it's a Gen Z romcom actually written by a teenager, with all those accompanying imperfections. That and its ending totally hits the sweet spot.

    June 5, 2020 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

    Larushka Ivan-Zadeh

    Metro (UK)

  • Banana Split is like a really poor episode of Riverdale, but less compelling.

    June 5, 2020 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

    Kevin Maher

    Times (UK)

  • The fundamental premise of this never really looks anything other than muddled and implausible, and certainly doesn't free up the relationship between Marks and Liberato in any satisfyingly comic direction.

    June 3, 2020 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

    Peter Bradshaw

    Guardian

  • The problem with Banana Split isn't the surface phoniness or lazy comedy but the fact that the movie doesn't offer any insight into its ostensible subjects-among them break-ups, female friendship, and teenage jealousy.

    Ignatiy Vishnevetsky

    AV Club

  • A smart and breezy coming-of-age comedy that pushes a lot of the buttons that Booksmart does.

    Alonso Duralde

    Linoleum Knife

  • In short, this is a smart and moving comedy that will make you howl with laughter and call your best gal pal. It's d*mn good stuff and shouldn't be missed.
