As their last summer before middle school comes to a close, four best friends face the uncertainties of growing up and embark on their biggest adventure yet.

Critics Consensus

Summering is a harmless enough coming-of-age story, but there are far superior -- and far less saccharine -- entries in this crowded genre.

2/5

The ending is a tiresome new-agey cop-out and a lot of viable ideas have gone to waste. A disappointment.

With its rare focus on girls’ friendship and growing up, 'Summering' has good intentions but that never actually makes it a good movie. Girls are owed their own 'Stand by Me,' but they deserve so much better than this.

That ethereal sort of thing could get gloopy and sentimental, but “Summering” balances the bucolic stuff with bits of acidic humor.

Ponsoldt’s Summering feels a bit disjointed as the themes and narratives are all over the place, but there are so many moments between them that makes the movie worthwhile.

Summering loses its soul and never bothers to recover it.

Summering is a monotonous pseudo-mystery about four 11-year-old girls who find a dead man's body and talk and act in ways that are very unrealistic for pre-teen girls. This pointless waste of time gets more irritating as it goes along. Avoid at all costs.
