First-time director Catherine Jelski dredges up every cliche about druggy, obnoxious dreamers on the fringes of Hollywood and assumes that said cliches have the power to shock and surprise. Apr 25, 2003 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review…

Jelski's casting is daring, in its way, and I wish more American filmmakers would follow her example. Apr 23, 2003

The writing and the lead performance of Devon Gummersall in Catherine Jelski's The Young Unknowns makes this spoiled rich kid movie almost tolerable. Apr 22, 2003 | Rating: 2/4

Feels like a pity-party for a few spoiled jerks who, all things considered, don't really merit 90 minutes of my undivided attention. Aug 14, 2005 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Within this haze of drug abuse, cockiness and hollowness, we're supposed to feel for our young, spoiled protagonist. Sadly, what we mostly feel is the pain of our eyes constantly rolling in our heads. May 16, 2003 | Full Review…

You're not going to feel enlightened by The Young Unknowns and, frankly, you'll probably benefit by keeping them unknown from your film-going pocketbook. Apr 25, 2003 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review…

The film wants to be a revealing character study of aimless Hollywood wannabes, but the story is just not compelling enough to make the viewer care. Apr 22, 2003 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

A film of probative quietude with fiercely invested in performances; in small ways perceptive and intelligent but overall too lackadaisical in its intellectual application to leave upon viewers more than a faint, passing memory. Apr 21, 2003 | Rating: C- | Full Review…
