A wonderfully eccentric examination of unlikely friendships that illuminates the absurd and lovely corners of life, Prince Avalanche is a deeply enjoyable, wondrous delight.
80
While the core elements of this reluctant buddy movie could almost constitute a pared-down theater piece, the film breathes with real cinematic expansiveness. Green's poetic observation skills are the key to that seeming contradiction.
75
The psychological path of these characters is finely marked with signposts, but as Prince Avalanche reaches its destination, you almost wish it would have gotten a little more lost in the woods.
75
The opposing genre extremes never entirely come together.
70
An unconventional, ultimately rather sweet buddy pic that's an audiovisual treat.
60
Prince Avalanche occupies a strange space between [Green's] broadly comedic fare and devoutly character-driven dramas, and while we're happy to see him closer to the latter mode once more, let's hope that he'll be back in a bigger way the next time out.
40
The best reason to see this misconceived film is its location.
