Even performances, which could have provided spark, are wooden at best, unbelievable at worst.

Film Journal International
Rating: 1.5/4 --
The characters in this movie don't talk like real people; they all talk like overly clever screenwriters.

Aisle Seat
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Embry and first-time actress Sparks have charming chemistry, but Christopher's slight screenplay wears out its welcome long before the film -- which runs a scant 80 minutes -- is over.
TV Guide
Rating: 1.5/4 --
If Pizza were an actual pizza, it would be half-pineapple, half-broccoli. At times, this coming-of-age comedy is quirkily saccharine, at others good-for-you sophistic.

Slant Magazine
Forget 30-minute delivery -- this brand of indie quirkiness congealed in the late '90s.
Village Voice
Rating: 3/4 --
It's Sparks (television's Complete Savages) and Embry (Can't Hardly Wait) who carry this dual coming-of-age tale with engaging, if often raw, performances.
Seattle Times
Rating: 3/5 --
Pizza will never be the Lou Malnati's deep dish of the independent film world, but its gentle pacing...makes this gem as comforting as mall pizza on a hungry day.

Product Description:
Ethan Embry (SWEET HOME ALABAMA) stars in this indie comedy about two small town residents who may have more in common than they think. Quirky Cara-Ethyl (newcomer Kylie Sparks) is celebrating her 18th birthday all by herself--unless you count her mother and Cara-Ethyl's cast of voices as guests. The self-proclaimed "pizza king" Matt (Embry) stops by her house with a delivery, but he ends up leaving with more than a tip. Now in his 30s, Matt is miles away from his high school popularity, and he can now identify with Cara-Ethyl's outsider status. So the unlikely pair begins a night of pizza deliveries, but there's more on the menu than just a slice of pepperoni. Judah Friedlander (30 ROCK) and Julie Hagerty (AIRPLANE!) costar.
