The New York Times
It does have the feel of farce at times, but much of the time it just seems determined to shock.

The A.V. Club
At the center of the movie, Tsimitselis makes for a disappointing blank, a pretty poster boy who leaves a long trail of emotional wreckage in his wake.

Los Angeles Times
Blackmail Boy reaches for tragedy but settles for soap opera.

TV Guide Magazine
Black comedy requires perfect pitch: Pedro Almodovar has it and cowriters/directors Michalis Reppas and Thanasis Papathanasiou don't, at least by the evidence of this film.

L.A. Weekly
It's a mean-spirited exercise in stilted outrageousness.

New York Post
The Greeks have a word for Blackmail Boy: boring.

Village Voice
Curiously, Blackmail Boy's alternate title is "Oxygen"--and by film's end, you'll be gasping for it.
