Masterfully crafted. Un-roastable.

An absolute cinematic disaster.

Before there were parenting blogs, trophies for showing up, and peanut allergies, there was a simpler time called the '80s. For geeky 11-year old Adam these were his wonder years and he faced them armed with a video camera to capture all the crazy. The Goldbergs are a loving family like any other, just with a lot more yelling.

Even the popcorn looked bored during The Goldbergs.

The Goldbergs put every joke in the trailer and then dared us to sit through the rest.

@POPCORN_CRITIC2026-01-03 17:00 UTC

The Goldbergs is 90 minutes of merch-tie-in with a story bolted on as a legal afterthought.

If The Goldbergs was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in The Goldbergs?

Just got out of The Goldbergs and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

The cinematography in The Goldbergs is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Director clearly thought The Goldbergs was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in The Goldbergs?

Rewatched The Goldbergs last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.
