50 Ways of Saying Fabulous Reviews
Orlando Weekly
Billy Manes
Bumps along wide-eyed, like a queer Stand By Me from down under, blue-ing up its spacey nighttimes and redding out its heated days with lush cinematography.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...yet another coming-of-age story...
TV Guide
Ken Fox
New Zealand writer-director Stewart Main's adaptation of Graeme Aitken's 1995 novel is a cheery, at times fanciful tale of a chubby New Zealand farmer's son growing up in remote Central Otago and coming to terms with his feelings for other men.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
The movie's insistently playful tone and cheesy fantasy sequences ultimately work against its ambitions, undermining a story that seethes with abuse and sexual obsession.
Filmcritic.com
Don Willmott
The disconnect between comedy and grim reality hurts the film.
eye WEEKLY
Adam Nayman
Young lead Andrew Paterson is so likeable that the film occasionally threatens to be affecting, but a series of strenuously melodramatic developments late in the game kept us detached and unimpressed.

Mark R. Leeper
Main tries to put messages into the film, lessons like to not believe in gender stereotypes. But his people seem to be taken more from wishful thinking than from the real world.
Film Journal International
Maitland McDonagh
Handsomely photographed but painfully fey.
