Lemon Reviews
San Diego Reader
Scott Marks
Be prepared for what will prove to be far and away the longest 83 minutes you'll spend watching a movie this year.
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
[Lemon] has some legitimately peculiar traits, and moments that flash with true absurdity. But there's a flatness in the end-result. The quirky is utterly predictable.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
A hack sitcom-complete with lame jokes about talent agents and commercial auditions and an overbearing Jewish family composed mostly of character actors-trying its hardest and loudest to come off as freakish and off-putting.
indieWire
Eric Kohn
There's an undeniable twisted poetry to the ongoing assault.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
Lemon by Chuck Bowen 1.5 Stars Self-absorption is Janicza Bravo's focus, though--as in other smug and mock-ironic comedies--it's a topic that's less examined than indulged.
The Playlist
Jessica Kiang
"Lemon," though at pains to be astringently off-kilter, is so hermetically insulated from the real world that it might as well come vacuum-packed.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
[Janicza] Bravo and co-writer/spouse [Brett] Gelman have crafted something so intentionally and self-reflexively off-putting that I'm still banging my head against the wall trying to figure out if it's comic gold or just lives up to its title.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
It's a case of truth in advertising.
Village Voice
Abbey Bender
A grating protagonist alone does not a bad film make, but the episodic, unsatisfying Lemon revels in purposeful nails-on-a-chalkboard unlikability.
Shadow and Act
Austin Williams
Where black stories told by white filmmakers are often handled as procedures, their subjects stiff and unconscious, films like Lemon, directed by women like Bravo are remarkable exercises in humanity.
Los Angeles Times
Katie Walsh
Bravo and Gelman find a transcendent absurdity in the mundane that's awkwardly enchanting. It's more tart than sweet, but deliciously weird nonetheless.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
One of the more original films in recent memory.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
Beyond deadpan, beyond drollness, beyond absurdity, lies Lemon, a "comedy" so uniquely off-kilter that it's never exactly clear when, or why, one should laugh-and when one does, it often occurs long after a given gag.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Emily Yoshida
It's the work of a filmmaker who has been honing her own jarring, idiosyncratic sense of rhythm and character for years. As a debut feature, it feels auspicious; as a snapshot of a masculine emergency, it feels timeless.
TheWrap
Kyle Turner
Isaac's trashy identity -- including how the little world he lives in is punctuated by overwhelming choral music -- is like all the annoying sad-white-dude-in-an-indie tropes rolled into one absurd character. That's a good thing.
Austin Chronicle
Sean L. Malin
Lachmann may be a Lemon, but this cerebral picture is just the opposite.
RogerEbert.com
Nick Allen
An instant classic that specifically feels like a product of 2017, the kind of bizarre culture treatise that could only come from fresh talent.
Flavorwire
Jason Bailey
This is not a conventional comedy; in fact, it barely qualifies as a comedy at all, staking out a claim in its own, strange territory.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
It's a watchable curio, because beneath it all the director, the Panamanian-born Janicza Bravo, has a more conventional sensibility than she lets on.
Hollywood Reporter
Todd McCarthy
A comedy of embarrassment, discomfort and anxiety that just keeps getting funnier as it goes along, Lemon is a one-of-a-kind treat that, by ending almost too soon, follows the old showbiz principle of leaving 'em wanting more.
