Reviews

The New York Times - Unnamed
A spry teenage comedy that gets everything right, Stick It takes the usual batch of underdogs, dirt bags, mean girls and bimbos and sends them somersaulting through happy clichés and unexpected invention.
83
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - Sean Axmaker
A sports empowerment fantasy of the best kind.
50
The A.V. Club - Scott Tobias
So along with being fake punk-rock, Stick It is also a fake protest movie. That leaves the only traces of genuineness to Bridges, who plays the coach with a fatherly patience that earns him a paycheck, but not the better film he deserves.
50
Chicago Tribune - Unnamed
Stick It reels from its own frenetic pace. The music is loud, the camera cuts are incessant and everything seems geared toward distracting us from what's going on onscreen. Which is not much.

Austin Chronicle - Marjorie Baumgarten
Like "Bring It On," Stick It is so much better than most of its insipid teen-movie peers yet like her earlier movie, Bendinger's new one is also not all it might be.
