- 100Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittChristian Science MonitorDavid SterrittTake a chance on Gerry. It's only a movie, and you'll get out alive no matter what happens on the screen. You might even find you've had a rare adventure.
- 100The A.V. ClubScott TobiasThe A.V. ClubScott TobiasConceptually bold and rapturously beautiful Gerry, a minimalist landscape film that's unlike anything on the American independent scene.
- 91Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanEntertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanThe movie is on some level a stunt, but it has the fervent, sun-dazed pull of an authentic experience unfolding in real time, with glints of drama, comedy, and terror mixed into the almost-but-not-quite tedium.
- 70Dallas ObserverGregory WeinkaufDallas ObserverGregory WeinkaufThere's elegance and grace here, fostering an opportunity to reflect upon why men get so dutiful about being down. It's worth the hike.
- 50New York PostJonathan ForemanNew York PostJonathan ForemanA gorgeously shot endurance test that is impossible to get through on anything less than a full night's sleep and a double shot of espresso.
- 50New York Magazine (Vulture)Peter RainerNew York Magazine (Vulture)Peter RainerA wee Boy Scout would have done far better in the wilds. It’s tough to think "Waiting for Godot" when what you’re watching is closer to "Dumb & Dumber."
- 50New York Daily NewsJack MathewsNew York Daily NewsJack MathewsGerry isn't much of anything, and doesn't claim to be. It's a movie stripped of its movieness.
- 30VarietyTodd McCarthyVarietyTodd McCarthyDefiantly uncommunicative picture.
- 25Baltimore SunMichael SragowBaltimore SunMichael SragowThe desert is clean in Gerry, but it's also empty.
- 0San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleSan Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleGerry is ragingly bad art that contributes to a definition of independent film as something no one would want to sit through.
