Ultimately, "Palo Alto" is a messy yet haunting portrait of a particular time in life.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

It's accurate to say that "Palo Alto" is another movie by another Coppola about the lives of the rich, bored and disaffected, but that description sells the movie short.

Rotten
While it shows Coppola has talent, it's also as aimless as her characters' self-absorbed, self-medicated, joyless lives.

That Coppola finds occasional grace and spirit here shows understanding and compassion. Her next assignment? Make a movie that's not about the troubles of the privileged and bored.
Tom Long, Detroit News
