Critic Reviews for All the Wilderness - MDBReviews
All the Wilderness critic reviews provided by Metacritic.com

The Dissolve | Kate ErblandThe stakes of All The Wilderness aren’t high, because Johnson never directs his attentions to the real issue at hand: James is ill, and gallivanting around Portland for a few nights isn’t going to fix that.

Tribune News Service | Roger MooreWriter-director Michael Johnson covers a lot of familiarly morbid teen ground in All the Wilderness, a film with touches of “Ordinary People” and a hint of “Harold & Maude.” But touches and a hint aren’t enough to lift this morose movie into anything any of us need to see or hear to deepen our understanding of teen depression, grief and love.

The New York Times | Jeannette CatsoulisMr. Johnson doesn’t give fateful weight to the breadcrumbs that guide James forward. Glancing encounters and faltering conversations unfold lightly and with a visual seductiveness that the cinematographer, Adam Newport-Berra, crescendos in the film’s drifting, transformative middle section.

RogerEbert.com | Susan WloszczynaUltimately amounts to a visually ambitious tone poem about the none-too-surprising caprices of male adolescence.

New York Daily News | Elizabeth WeitzmanFirst-time writer/director Michael Johnson falls back on coming-of-age clichés. But overall, his sensitive, moody camerawork and the cast’s strong performances go a long way toward making the familiar feel fresh.

The Playlist | Kevin JagernauthAll The Wilderness may ultimately be hindered by a narrow scope, but within that view, Johnson gets pretty much every detail right.

Village Voice | Pete Vonder HaarIn spite of the tatty "coming of age" familiarity, Johnson's vision seems fresh and vibrant.
