Entertainment Weekly Chris Nashawaty
Splinterheads, which aims to be a quirkier "Adventureland," never rises above mildly amusing.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Jeannette Catsoulis
Splinterheads gains traction from an eclectic cast that knows how to work a line.
Read Full Review >Variety Peter Debruge
Writer-director Brant Sersen's amiable indie comedy -- even less edgy than Greg Mottola's theme-park-set "Adventureland" -- attempts to compensate for its too-familiar romantic setup by defining its characters through idiosyncratic hobbies and traits.
Read Full Review >Time Out New York Andrew Grant
Equal parts Hollywood meet-cute and quirky coming-of-age tale.
Read Full Review >Austin Chronicle Marjorie Baumgarten
Amiable and proficient, this indie romantic comedy is never more or less than reliable.
Read Full Review >New York Post V.A. Musetto
Splinterheads might suffice some late night on cable, but that's about it.
Read Full Review >Portland Oregonian Staff (Not credited)
If you want genuine laughs and romance in a carnival setting, go rent "Adventureland."
