      Chicago Tribune

      In addition to being a good-looking movie with a pumping Foo Fighters anthem, "Score" is actually a philosophical argument against our culture of tests.

      Washington Post

      The comedy about a coterie of high school seniors plotting to steal the answers to the dreaded standardized test talks a pretty good game, but in the end the numbers just don't add up to much.

      Chicago Reader

      It's amiable and smartly paced, if noticeably lacking in conviction.

      You may be able to find parallels between these characters and those in "The Breakfast Club." On the other hand, you may decide life is too short.

      Dallas Observer

      The heist itself is quite nicely filmed herein, but unfortunately, getting to it requires sitting through a bunch of noisy, fussy crap, from the overly busy soundtrack to the irritating narration of stoned guy Leonardo Nam.

      L.A. Weekly

      Disfigured by flabby dialogue (“You can't put a number on my dreams!”), unfunny pratfalls and criminally slack pacing.

      The Hollywood Reporter

      The story is flimsy, and when the dialogue touches on controversial issues regarding the SAT and its fairness, the slacker tone turns abruptly melodramatic.

      Only sharp dialogue and a suspenseful buglary might have given this lame, quasi morality play some energy. It has neither.
