Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman
By the end of Nowhere Boy, you'll feel you know John Lennon better than you ever did.
75
Movieline - Michelle Orange
Although this is a film about the influential women in Lennon's life, it succeeds equally in its evocation of the family Lennon built among his boyhood mates.
75
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
Johnson doesn't resemble, much less embody, Lennon, but he does catch his distinctive glint of mischief tinged with pain. Duff and Scott Thomas are both exceptional, revealing how John's relationship with these two clashing sisters marked his character.
70
Boxoffice Magazine - Amy Nicholson
Like Todd Haynes' "I'm Not There"-which never once came out and said the name "Bob Dylan"-Nowhere Boy bites its tongue and refuses to say "The Beatles."
67
The A.V. Club - Keith Phipps
It's a tender, but sometimes untended, portrait of the artist as a young man-and occasionally as a young asshole-that's handsome, dutiful, and finally, a little dull.
