It's Wolff and Rourke who have to carry the load, and for the most part they do.

Village Voice
It's a quirky life-lessons setup that, while occasionally earning deadpan laughs, tries for but never achieves Wes Anderson's patented mixture of the archly witty and the sneakily emotional.

Los Angeles Times
Despite the many winding roads it goes down, Ashby is funny throughout and easy to watch.

Common Sense Media
Rating: 3/4 --
A genre-blending adventure which somehow successfully combines elements of the coming-of-age and last hurrah formulas.

While a pleasing attempt at a feature debut, it's hard to imagine Ashby will have too much staying power past its theatrical release.

Ashby has occasional heartwarming moments but isn't well-rounded enough to understand its own journey.
