The surprising melancholy of the film juxtaposed with the quick wit of Davidson does hint at something worthy in Orley's vision, but it's just not quite enough to set the world on fire. Feb 1, 2019 | Full Review…

A sturdy dramedy that makes up for its lack of depth in scrappy charm, and a willingness to admit that sometimes the best characters are ones destined to screw everything up. Feb 1, 2019 | Rating: B | Full Review…

If Big Time isn't exactly a PSA for good adulting, it's still an endearingly messy portrait of boyhood and manhood and all the lessons in between. Jan 30, 2019 | Rating: B | Full Review…

Big Time Adolescence follows a fairly typical coming-of-age template, but is strengthened by a pair of very strong lead performances from Gluck and Davidson. Apr 8, 2019 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review…

Orley's script is smart and knowing in all the right ways, delivering a steady stream of ridiculously bad ideas and sharp one-liners for his cast to run with, but also showing how vulnerable all his characters are. Feb 4, 2019 | Full Review…
