Though minor arcs play out in each piece, Dare lacks an overarching narrative to propel the entire film, so overall pacing feels uneven and long at just 90 minutes. July 6, 2010 | Full Review…

The film lacks the comedic charm of American Pie, but with its dark, hyper-sexualization of teens, it offers an engrossing if not soap opera-esque tale of self-discovery. November 13, 2009 | Full Review…

Dare feels a bit unfinished, at once overreaching and underrealized. But there is a lot of intelligence, and considerable daring, in the basic conceit. November 13, 2009 | Full Review…

Dare is a high school coming-of-age film that dares to push the envelope. It doesn't always succeed, but that's not for lack of trying. November 13, 2009 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

I've rarely seen a more rabidly inconsistent film -- astute one moment, stupid the next. November 10, 2015 | Rating: C+

Dare portrays teenagers with actual depth, breaking away from the conventional stories we see so often in films involving high schoolers these days. It'll stick with you long after the movie's over. November 10, 2015 | Full Review…

Dare is ostensibly about high-school identity and and social anxiety, but if feels more like three interrelated episodes of Extreme Makeover: Personality Edition strung together to make an all too obvious point. July 6, 2010 | Full Review…

Unlike so many films that paint a rosy picture of adolescence for adults with fuzzy memories, Dare has the courage of its convictions. February 12, 2010 | Full Review…
