Critic Reviews

IndieWire Eric Kohn

Beers' screenplay manages to sustain the outrageous scenario with a string of jokes that don't take the underlying goofiness for granted. Instead, the writer-director builds on its crass foundations with constant inspired one-liners. Read full review

John DeFore

The script, by Beers and Mathew Harawitz, offers a little less invention in this endless-repeat scenario than it might have. Read full review

Nicolas Rapold

Jul 2, 2014

Premature bops along with a wiseacre self-awareness and a nimble cast... But Mr. Beers and his fellow screenwriter, Mathew Harawitz, also have a numbing Seth MacFarlane-esque weakness for purely attention-getting crudeness and unfunny stereotypes. Read full review

Chris Packham

Premature, you will be exhausted to hear, is a teen sex comedy with the plot of Groundhog Day, its supernatural comedy hearkening more to Scott Baio's Zapped! than to Porky's. Read full review

Inkoo Kang

Jul 24, 2014

A rapidly wearying comedy that mistakes crudeness with humor. Read full review

Joe Leydon

Jul 2, 2014

Premature winds up resembling nothing so much as the coarsely smutty teen-sex comedies that abounded throughout the ’80s in the wake of “Porky’s.” Read full review

Elizabeth Weitzman

Jul 2, 2014

The blatantly misogynistic treatment of the female characters, who exist solely to service Rob and his best friend (Craig Roberts), would have felt retrograde in a movie made decades ago. Read full review

Premature is not the most original comedy you will ever see, but it took me by surprise that it has some fresh ideas, that made the whole movie over exciting and jumped over its minor flaws.
