Newark Star-Ledger
A dull yet extremely self-important drama about rich, badly parented kids who feel sorry for themselves.

This film tries to be a rallying cry for the disenfranchised youth of today. Not being a disenfranchised youth of today, it was mostly lost on me.

Philadelphia Weekly
Pathetic. Nothing but an over-privileged filmmaker mining his prep school diaries for narcissistic roleplay.

The Art of Getting By wants to be sweet and insightful, but ends up scattered and slight.

Movie Metropolis
An easygoing film that's not as quirky as it wants to be and does just enough to make you glad you watched.

Seattle Times
Though Highmore and Roberts are appealing performers, Wiesen never gives us much reason to care about them.

Gets by. Barely.

Washington Post
For anyone not in a similar state of age-related solipsism - i.e., anyone outside the 16- to 25-year-old age bracket - this is more than a little annoying.

New York Daily News
There are several lessons to be learned in "The Art of Getting By," though all arrive too late to save this well-meaning but dreadfully executed movie.

None of this first feature from writer-director Gavin Wiesen rings true, and most of it is preposterous and self-conscious.

Globe and Mail
The vapidity of The Art of Getting By goes beyond the anthill-sized dramatic stakes. The dialogue, while occasionally epigrammatic, is tone-deaf to individual speech rhythms.
