"Disturbing precisely because it is so believable, Kids goes well beyond any previous American film in frankly describing the lives of at least a certain group of modern teenagers."

Roger Ebert
Roger Ebert"It may be too late to save you from "Kids." Not save in the moral sense, because, as New York City Mayor Jimmy Walker famously commented, "No one was ever ruined by a book." Or a movie. But bored, bored is a different matter."
