Like watching a neighbor's summer camp home movies, "Indian Summer" is a sleep inducing bore. Eight alumni campers are barely introduced, when unbelievably boring flashbacks begin for characters we know nothing about. Fine actors, Alan Arkin, and Bill Paxton are... Full review

A quiet, sweet and beutifully nostalgic movie on how it is to be confronted with old friends and surroundings from your youth with all that memories and the problems and sorrows of the present with you. A movie that makes... Full review
We saw 'Indian Summer' as part of a quest to see most Diane Lane movies. She is superb as always. The movie has "Big Chill" feel to it, but is a quite different story. Here a group of 30-somethings get... Full review

Washington Post
Nothing else in "Indian Summer" comes close to matching this ravishing opening flashback. The film is just too pat, too predictable and too generic. Arkin and the moose are the best things about the movie. No film with Alan Arkin can be wholly bad. ... Full Review

Chicago Sun-Times
It was there, during three or four summers, that I gathered memories that " Indian Summer " awakened with a fierce poignancy. The prevailing feeling of the film is warm and gentle, and there are no really bad people or terrible secrets. ... Full Review

James Berardinelli's Reviews
Although there are several good comedy sequences, this uneven humor is unable to camouflage the essential weakness of the storyline.....Cheap cinematography tricks like graying the film aren't likely to cause an audience to wax sentimental.....There are times when the film is almost palatable because of the actors.....Alan Arkin, the consummate professional, is dryly humorous as the aging camp director.....Despite the weak material they're given to work with, at least the ensemble cast is solid..... ...

I've short-sheeted beds and belted out camp songs with the best of them. Indian Summer made me long to be back in one of those gloriously rickety, mildewed cabins in a lush, rural forest. ... Full Article
