A.O. Scott, New York Times: EXCELLENT "...examines, with compassion and clarity, a young woman's discovery of passion and also of the pain, disappointment and partial wisdom that follow." (Read the full review...) 587 words, 04/20/12 Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: GOOD (NOT GREAT) (cg) "What saves the film is the fact that the characters are always easy to recognize, both as self-centered teenagers and tentatively maturing young adults." (Read the full review...) 143 words, 04/20/12 Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times: EXCELLENT "...beautifully honest and psychologically astute... Nothing is rushed, everything is given its appropriate time and place." (Read the full review...) 709 words, 04/20/12 V.A. Musetto, New York Post: VERY GOOD (cg) "...so goes young love, beautifully rendered by Hansen-Love, with a powerful but understated performance by Lola Créton." (Read the full review...) 252 words, 04/20/12 David Edelstein, New York Magazine: VERY GOOD "...harrowing... Mia Hansen-Løve's touch is glancing, suggestive, the locations conjuring inner states, the art concealed: She gives the impression of breathing her story rather than telling it." (Read the full review...) 545 words, 04/16/12 Karina Longworth, Village Voice/LA Weekly: GOOD "...a film about learning how to plunder one's own experience to make something richer than direct memoir... Hansen-Løve is interested in how one learns to make art out of life." (Read the full review...) 660 words, 04/18/12
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: VERY GOOD (cg) "Love is blind, they say. The movie understands the hazard of that cliché: Some lovers are also blind spots." (Read the full review...) 679 words, 05/11/12 Stan Hall, Portland Oregonian: GOOD (cg) "The sweet torture and intensity of young love, when even short absences make the heart grow truly desperate, are vividly captured by Mia Hansen-Love..."

McGavin, Boston Phoenix: OUTSTANDING (cg) "...evokes the consciousness of female desire as something blinding and all-encompassing... conveys an emphatic mixture of audacity, naïveté, and sexual abandon." (Read the full review...) 131 words, 05/10/12 Noel Murray, AV Club: OUTSTANDING (cg) "...romanticizes the fervor of adolescent relationships -- particularly the way that young lovers feel prematurely like grown-ups -- and illustrates why they're untenable.... poignant, bittersweet, and true." (Read the full review...) 331 words, 09/10/11 Nick Schager, Slant: MODERATE (cg) "...often bracing... [but] mistakes pretty-kid pouting, long silences, and heavy-handed environment-reflects-character symbolism for actual insight." (Read the full review...) 604 words, 10/13/11

(Read the full review...) 750 words, 07/18/11 Jordan Mintzer, Hollywood Reporter: VERY GOOD "...the sort of casual, insightful and at times sexually candid storytelling that, if it wasn't necessarily invented in France, has definitely become one the nation's more prized genres."
