Nerve Movie Review By The New York Times
For all its hints at imminent catastrophe, “Nerve” feels surprisingly tame. Juliette Lewis appears briefly as Vee’s spectacularly clueless mother, and the endearing young actor Miles Heizer (so perfectly awkward in NBC’s “Parenthood”) is forced to play Vee’s best friend mostly from inside a car.

Nerve Movie Review By Variety
Nerve is a comic-book vision of how the Internet has become a gladiatorial arena of voyeurism. But the movie, like the game it’s about, is hard to stop watching, even when you know it’s playing you.

Nerve Movie Review By Hollywood Reporter
Fortunately Schulman and Joost keep the film visually engaging…. All that busyness onscreen distracts somewhat from the impression that Roberts and Franco don’t look much like teenagers, although they form a fairly good team as long as they’re pursuing specific challenges rather than sharing their nascent emotions for one another or attempting to unravel the intricacies of the game.

Nerve Movie Review By The Wrap
While the film’s vertiginous set pieces are appropriately heart-clenching, it’s not nearly as successful at little details like plot and character.

Nerve Movie Review By Entertainment Weekly
This is a film about young people with a youthful energy and sense of fun that’s refreshing, especially in the summer of movies we’ve had so far. The tone and relatively low stakes allows Nerve to be shallow, divertive escapism—kind of like Snapchat.

Nerve Movie Review By MTV News
Though Roberts is miscast as a wallflower — seriously, the film expects us to believe a jock in her class would dismiss the mannequin-perfect beauty as “not my type” — Nerve taps into the rush of realizing strangers think you’re cool.

Nerve Movie Review By Washington Post
Nerve is exciting, topical and potentially prescient, but it scores no points for character development, and the plot holes are so big that you could, well, drive a speeding motorcycle through them.

Nerve Movie Review By The Guardian
It’s rare when you can pinpoint the exact moment a movie goes off the rails, but when Nerve downshifts from far-fetched parable into idiotic action, the film at least has the decency to speed itself along to get to the ending.
