This is a nifty little gem in the heist genre, with the familiar message about the perils of greed and always wanting more and more and even more. - 50
Movie Nation
But Echo Boomers — terrible title, BTW — can’t get by on echoes of better thrillers that covered the same ground. And betting on Schwarzenegger making the family name an acting dynasty seems like a long shot, even in a business known for its nepotism. - 40

The result is that the slackly paced Echo Boomers has all the excitement of a feature-length essay in The Nation. - 25
The Playlist
The filmmakers’ inability or unwillingness to actually engage with the discourse it builds Echo Boomers around leaves the film feeling both artificial and hysterical. - 25

As with the many trend pieces complaining about millennials spending too much money on avocado toast over home mortgages, Echo Boomers gets a lot wrong about the generation it wants to discuss. Maybe the filmmakers should have listened more.
