Rating: 4.9/10 --
Ultimately, the portrayals in About Alex are all caricatures that don't really ring true.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
Only Plaza's performance as the troubled Sarah comes close to creating a three-dimensional character.
Seattle Times
Neither the script's up-to-the-minute signifiers nor its cheekily self-aware humor can entirely dispel a formulaic feel.

I was pleasantly surprised by much of "About Alex," a film that features a stronger-than-average ensemble for this subgenre even if it too often succumbs to predictable, traditional turns of Screenwriting 101.

Rating: 3/4 --
The intelligence and unhackneyed humor of the believable, unself-conscious screenplay by fledgling director Mr. Zwick (son of veteran director Edward Zwick) deserves special praise. It never hits a false note.

Observer
The insight that social media fosters false intimacy is old news. The film shows only a half-formed sense of how careers have changed in 30 years.

Rating: 2/4 --
The chronicle of a less self-absorbed generation, it's less annoying than The Big Chill but also less funny.
