Entertainment Reviews:
3.5 stars out of 4 -- Mario has a message and is ingenious in the way that he embeds it in a display of wall-to-wall music, high-energy split-screen montages and singularly attractive actors.
Chicago Sun-Times
Heavy-handed teen drama mixes moralizing and partying to uneven effect.

Hollywood Reporter
Rating: 3/4 --
Unfolding like a 21st Century update of African-American coming-of-age classics House Party (1990) and Love Jones (1997), We the Party might very well come to serve as the seminal adventure capturing the angst and aspirations of the Millennial Generation.

A good-natured high school dramedy that borrows from many others...

Rating: 3/4 --
While We the Party can be insensitive, or blind, to the misogyny and homophobia of the general culture (the token gay teen is a finger-snapping, head-bobbing fashionista), it takes the issues of race and class quite seriously.

Rating: 2.5/5 --
Van Peebleses ... populate the movie, and all are serviceable enough as actors; it would be nice to see them in less earnest, more original material.

Mario Van Peebles' self-produced project comes frustratingly close to his high-minded aims.
