Critic Reviews of "Fat Kid Rules the World"
Chicago ReaderNovember 29, 2012The depiction of high school band life rings true at every turn, bringing a sense of authenticity to the familiar teenage drama.
Chicago Sun-TimesNovember 29, 2012It's a lot better than it sounds like it has any right to be.
Seattle TimesOctober 25, 2012Lillard - an actor best-known for his role in "The Descendants" - uses the locations well enough, but the result is still a standard coming-of-age picture.
San Francisco ChronicleOctober 18, 2012The movie is achingly slow, and by the time it's over, the story is about where it should have been after about 45 minutes.
Village VoiceOctober 05, 2012The film succeeds thanks to Lillard's clear affection for the material and on the strength of its performances, especially Billy Campbell as Troy's conflicted father.
EricDSnider.comJuly 21, 2013The scenario sounds cliched, but it's brought to life by authentic characters, solid laughs, and surprisingly honest emotions.
Shockya.comNovember 01, 2012A sweet-natured and loose-limbed coming-of-age tale that delivers by way of its smart, sympathetic performances and an accumulation of telling details.
Times-PicayuneOctober 19, 2012It's got its flaws, starting with the fact that the ground it covers is exceedingly well-trodden, but it's amiable and it's honest, and that counts for something.
NerdistOctober 14, 2012[Billy] Campbell's performance is one of the finest of the year, and probably won't be duly recognized
School Library JournalOctober 06, 2012Like Going's award-winning book, the film is frank and doesn't sugarcoat the source material.
NYC Movie GuruOctober 06, 2012Poignant, funny and well-acted. A commendable directorial debut of Matthew Lillard.
