News & Interviews for House Party
Critic Reviews for House Party
All Critics (25) | Top Critics (8) | Fresh (24) | Rotten (1) | DVD (1)
Clearly this is no masterpiece, but as its US reception indicated, it is a product overdue in the market, and it compares well with its anaemic counterparts.
All of the performances are good and the soundtrack pulses with humor as well as decibels.
There's a lot more energy and social reality in this picture than one is accustomed to finding in teen exploitation movies; the cutting is often dynamic, and Hudlin generally does a good job of keeping things moving.
[It's] fast-moving, never dull, extremely funny, and manages to touch, with lighthearted (and R-rated) profundity on almost every youthful issue you can imagine, including police harassment, teenage sex, the all-too-easy road to jail and alcohol drinking.
House Party isn't a great movie, but it's heartfelt and enormously winning.
House Party is silly and high-spirited and not particularly significant, and that is just as it should be.
