	Author	Review
United States	Stephen Dalton The Hollywood Reporter	"[It] breathes warmth and humor into a potentially dry topic thanks largely to its terrific young cast."	POS
United Kingdom	Kate Muir The Times	"An insightful, moving drama. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of five)"	POS
United States	Alissa Simon Variety	"Lenken excels at establishing a realistic relationship between Stella and Katja, and the actresses share good chemistry as well as a certain resemblance."	POS
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"The performances are good but the resolution is too smooth in this story of a girl who stumbles upon her idolised elder sister’s eating disorder. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of five)"	NEU
United Kingdom	Fionnuala Halligan Screendaily	"As a depiction of the tug and pull of sibling emotions, 'My Skinny Sister' hits the target with an almost-unnerving accuracy."	POS
