CineVue
Rape scene aside, Nowhere is stunningly beautiful to watch. There’s not one frame that hasn’t been intricately stylised. Araki brings his trilogy to a head in a bundle of celluloid confusion that encapsulates nihilistic teenage mentality and delivers an expressionistic banquet for your eyes to devour (and your brain to decipher). It’s a wild, enjoyable teenage riot. - 75
The A.V. Club
Nowhere is Araki's most accomplished film yet, and if it never quite comes together, it's still a wildly entertaining film. - 67
Austin Chronicle
The third and final chapter in Araki's teen-angst-run-riot-in-L.A. triptych is as gorgeously messy as the first two opening salvos (Totally F***ed Up and The Doom Generation), but this time Araki employs a far broader and more complex character canvas than previously. - 50
The New York Times
If it weren't so overpopulated and desperate to shock, Nowhere might have succeeded as a maliciously cheery satire of Hollywood brats overdosing on the very concept of Hollywood. But the movie is so hectically paced that it doesn't have time to develop its characters or to flesh out the tales it sets in motion. Even comic books are better at telling stories. - 42
Entertainment Weekly
A visual and aural overload that ultimately tires rather than conveys a feeling of f—-d up-ness. - 40
Empire
Inferior teen drugs-drama, lacking depth and a point. - 25
San Francisco Examiner
As bad movies go, Gregg Araki's Nowhere is right up there with the best of them. - 25
TV Guide Magazine
Director and enfant terrible-wannabe Gregg Araki winds up his Teen Apocalypse trilogy with this loud, ridiculous mess, and not a moment too soon.
