  by Robert Kojder [Flickering Myth ]

• Charlie Plummer delivers a stunning awards-worthy performance to power this touching and winning look at a high school senior struggling with schizophrenia

  by Pete Hammond [Deadline ]

• a very authentic portrait of what it's like to live with schizophrenia; the film does an outstanding job where it really counts -- depicting a young man valiantly fighting his mental illness and refusing to let it keep him from finding happiness

  by Mike McGranaghan [Aisle Seat ]

• "Words on Bathroom Walls" is a wonderfully made film that touches your heart and opens your eyes against the stigmas of mental illness

  by Beverly Kwakye [Black Girl Nerds ]

• "Words on Bathroom Walls" is a delicate balancing act; when "Words on Bathroom Walls" is at its sunniest and most blithe, the moral of the story feels a little more like a punchline than is appropriate

  by Michael O'Sullivan [Washington Post ]

• "Words on Bathroom Walls" deftly balances being part romcom and part mental illness drama, offering a uniquely compelling coming-of-age story

  by Molly Freeman [ScreenRant ]

• "Words on Bathroom Walls" continues to show that Hollywood is much better at turning out quality adaptations of contemporary, realistic-fiction young adult literature than the much-harder-to-capture sci-fi/fantasy adventures
