Reception and release
Down the Shore has a 45% on Rotten Tomatoes based on 11 reviews[4] as well as 58% approval, based on 7 reviews on Metacritic.[5] Gabe Toro of IndieWire said that "Down the Shore at least deserves credit for its strong performances (though the less said about too-old John Magaro’s turn as Mary’s autistic son, the better)".[6] The film also received a 1.5 out of 5 from Chuck Bowen of Slant Magazine who said that "the film suggests what might happen if TBS and Bruce Springsteen were to collaborate on a sitcom set in hell".[7]
Simon Bookfield of We Got This Covered gave Down the Shore a "Fair" score, saying in his closing comments that "in terms of pace, Down the Shore walks a very narrow line between deliberate and utterly languid, but there are just enough strong performances and intriguing (if messy) dynamics to make it work".[8] Variety was quoted saying that "The virtue of this standard family tale is James Gandolfini's most substantial feature role to date",[9] while Michael Rechstshaffen of The Hollywood Reporter said that "a rock solid James Gandolfini performance keeps this slice-of-Jersey-life drama grounded".[10]
The film came out on Blu-ray Disc on April 9, 2013.[11] Besides the film itself, the disc featured Sharon Stone's flick Border Run.[12]
