As a young girl obsessed with making enough cash to get out of her blue collar existence, she’s betting on her sharp mind—and even sharper mouth—to get her into an Ivy League university. But when an acceptance letter to the school of her dreams arrives, she quickly realizes the impossibility of paying tuition. One scalping scheme, stint in prison, and chance phone conversation ...

	Author	Review
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"Unfortunately, Buffaloed lacks the depth and sophistication to be more than a minor diversion (...) Deutch proves the pic's saving grace"	NEU
United States	Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times	"It’s hard to begrudge 'Buffaloed' too much; this is a fast, fun watch that succeeds largely on the charms of its star and the able hands of its director."	POS
United States	John Fink The Film Stage	"A rough and tumble, funny character study"	POS
United States	Kate Erbland IndieWire	"Zoey Deutch Charms (...) 'Buffaloed' isn’t without other strengths but its undercooked and often cowardly plot doesn’t do it any favors"	NEU
United States	Johnny Oleksinski New York Post	"It’s actually good (...) Thanks largely to the feisty Deutch, 'Buffaloed' is a fun time (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"Simultaneously rowdy and slick, 'Buffaloed' is exuberantly paced and entirely dependent on Deutch’s moxie and pell-mell performance"	NEU
United States	Hoai-Tran Bui SlashFilm	"'Buffaloed' moves at breakneck speed, led with aplomb by Deutch, who is absolutely magnetic onscreen"	POS
United States	Elizabeth Weitzman The Wrap	"[It is disappointing] that Peg’s huge persona leaves little space for anyone else (...) Still, Wexler is a confident filmmaker, and her passion and sense of humor flash throughout"	NEU
