With strong performances, a stunning summer location and plenty of hijinks, That Friend may not provide a barrel of laugh-out-loud chuckles but entertains nonetheless. Go to Full Review Paul Emmanuel Enicola The Movie Buff 2d
B-
Has enough energy, warmth, and performer chemistry to get by on charm, even when the script is doing that familiar indie-comedy thing where chaos arrives wearing a big grin and begging to be loved. Go to Full Review Matt Hudson What I Watched Tonight 3d
4/5
Despite it being a comedy at heart, That Friend possesses a large dose of heart that propels it along, even in times when the humour stumbles. Go to Full Review Josh Bate Screen Rant 4d
4/10
Despite such strong efforts to invoke a chuckle from the audience, That Friend ultimately features few, if any, humorous moments. Go to Full Review Peter Gray The AU Review 6d
3/5
Packed with sharp performances, genuine warmth and enough chaotic energy to power several comedies, That Friend proves that even the most exhausting people can make for great company. Go to Full Review Alex Papaioannou Next Best Picture 6d
7/10
