Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Ben Stiller's directorial debut was this sporadically successful twentysomething comedy that tries too hard to codify the generational experience of its young adult characters. Winona Ryder plays a still-unformed woman struggling with career and relationship issues, Janeane Garofalo portrays her best friend, and Ethan Hawke and Stiller play the two lovers pursuing her. The story is as also about generation-X confusion over how to get by in a hand-me-down world with not much to get excited about, a world filled with a pop culture currency of bad music and poetry slams. The film's chief strength is its appealing cast, which is bolstered by appearances from David Spade, Renee Zellweger, Kevin Pollak, Jeanne Triplehorn, and Stiller's mother, Anne Meara. --Tom Keogh

I think that `Reality Bites' has been unfairly labeled as thin and hollow. I actually feel as though the film tackles its issues with grace and delicacy, handling the subject in a way that feels complete when the credits begin to roll. The film was never meant to be a weighty message type film but more a relaxed look at real concerns of the youths of the 90's (or `Generation X'). For what it sets out to do, I think `Reality Bites' works very well. When you couple the finely crafted script with ... Read More

[Reality Bites] is the story of four students who graduate and find themselves facing, well, reality. Troy Dyer [Ethan Hawke] is an intelligent but shiftless slacker. He plays in a band, but other than that, can't hold down a job to save his life. He has a thing for Lelaina Pierce [Winona Ryder] but the two fight the inevitable, afraid of commitment, or afraid that their friendship will suffer. Lelaina has a good job at a local TV morning show, but she hates it. She astutely judges it to be insipid, ... Read More

No, this film bites! Has there ever been another film where the main characters are so unlikable? Winona Ryder is supposed to be the valedictorian of her class, and her acquaintance Ethan Hawke is routinely described as having a "high IQ" - yet they are both lazy, criminally inclined and, well, unlikable. Ben Stiller plays a buffoon executive who is so inarticulate as to invite audience scorn.
Nor are the situations plausible. Ryder, the "valedictorian," forgets the final pages of her ... Read More

This movie changed my life. How? The books that the character 'Troy' (Ethan Hawke) either reads or references in the movie. Sure, it's a great movie but what meant the most for me was the director's or writer's (or whoever it was) choice to use or reference the following books: Martin Heidegger's "Being and Time", Robert Pirsig's "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" and John Steinbeck's "The Winter of Our Discontent". Read those books and you will be forever changed!

I think Ben Stiller is a very talented individual, thank God nobody held this waste of 99 minutes against him.
If you identify with self-absorbed, pampered and immature Gen-Xers, hey great, but I spend enough time in real life trying to avoid these negative slouches, I'm sorry I deliberately visited their shallow world here.
Winona Ryders offscreen shoplifting and pill-popping troubles make her undisciplined, whiny and self-pitying role here easy to swallow, but it's still something you would ... Read More
