| The
Wackness is both darkly funny and life-affirming, in an offbeat and offhanded
way. Claudia Puig USA Today Jonathan Levine's The Wackness is a studiously offbeat coming-of-age crowd-pleaser set in New York City during the long-ago, far-away days of...the summer of 1994. Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly What saves this movie, which won this year's audience award at Sundance, from being boring are performances by two actors who see a chance to go over the top and aren't worried about the fall on the other side.
