While the direction is capable, the writing isn't nearly as sharp as it needs to be.

Newark Star-Ledger
In making his debut as writer-director with the indie dramedy DEAN, mop-topped comedian Demetri Martin spotlights the sketchpad doodling long featured in his drily idiosyncratic stand-up and TV work.
Boston Globe
Rating: 3/5 --
Dean is a flawed movie that sometimes flubs implementing the same quirky visually stylistic touches that match the personality of the young man himself, but it's also an engaging dramedy with a striking sense of authenticity

Flickering Myth
3 stars out of 4 -- Demetri Martin, best known for the distinctive deadpan of his stand-up comedy, makes the transition into feature filmmaking as writer, director and star with just the right blend of humor and heartbreak.
Rolling Stone
Mildly amusing and nicely acted by the supporting players, Dean nonetheless doesn't feel like a big-screen breakthrough for Martin, who doesn't dig deeply enough into the movie's most interesting element: undigested grief.

Denerstein Unleashed
The writer-director-star does a stellar job of balancing sketch-comedy style laughs with genuinely touching moments.
Chicago Sun-Times
Rating: 4/5 --
A touching dramedy about the different styles of grief.
