High school senior Carson Phillips (Chris Colfer, "Glee") was on a path to greatness, when he was suddenly killed by a bolt of lightning in his school parking lot. Carson recounts the last few weeks of his life via witty, insightful flashbacks, including a blackmail scheme targeting the popular kids concocted with his best friend (Rebel Wilson, BRIDESMAIDS) and a home life that includes a mother (Allison Janney, JUNO, "The West Wing") 's more interested in the bottle than her son's future and an estranged father (Dermot Mulroney, MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING) who suddenly appears with a pregnant fiancée (Christina Hendricks, "Mad Men").

Review For Movie Struck by Lightning
Colfer is still very young, but he needs to learn that "snide" is not a point of view.Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger
Ultimately, it all portends a much brighter future for Colfer than for Carson.
Sara Stewart-New York Post
If only "Struck by Lightning" had a sharper, stronger perspective, it might have made more of its conceit.
Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times
Except for Ms. Janney's monstrous mother and an Alzheimer's-afflicted grandmother (Polly Bergen), "Struck by Lightning" gives its characters no dimension.
Stephen Holden-New York Times
There isn't much to say about Struck by Lightning, except that it's one of those interchangeable teen movies that lands in theaters in early January, the morgue for films nobody knows what to do with.
Ella Taylor-NPR
In his screenwriting debut, Glee's gifted Chris Colfer, 22, proves he can lace a line with sass and soul.
Peter Travers-Rolling Stone
This is a highly confused film that doesn't seem to know exactly what it wants to be.
Travis Hopson-Examiner.com
Likeable, frequently funny comedy enlivened by snappy dialogue and strong performances from a superb comic cast, though the overall plot is weak and the opening conceit referenced in the title fails to convey any dramatic or emotional weight.
Matthew Turner-ViewLondon
There are some nice spins on old high school clichés and enough off-center characters and good, occasionally great, dialogue that should make this one of the year's early hits in the art house market.
Elias Savada-Film Threat
The main character is more off-putting than endearing.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
Edgy high school comedy from Glee star has some iffy stuff
Sandie Angulo Chen-Common Sense Media
Struck By Lightning possesses a jarring mixture of tones, with moments of dark comedy sitting somewhat uneasily alongside scenes of quiet domestic drama.
Ethan Alter-Television Without Pity
It's not exactly ambitious, but Struck by Lightning is a noble failure, with individual elements more interesting than the strangled, distracted whole.
Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com
Lightning is a funny, fast-moving movie, packed with barbed one-liners, goofy hyperbole, and all the oversized exasperation of teen angst. But it's too acid, particularly where Colfer is concerned.
Tasha Robinson-AV Club
"Glee" favorite Chris Colfer wrote and stars in this particularly self-serving vehicle, the narcissism of which impedes the fun.
David Noh-Film Journal International
