United States | New York Post | "As saucy as a belly piercing, Mini's First Time is a black comedy that puts the soul of 'Heathers' in Lolita's bikini." | POS |
United States | The Hollywood Reporter | "Boasts an uncommon stylization and some first-rate comic performances. But its provocative setup is undercut by its lengthy depiction of an all-too-familiar game of cat and mouse" | NEU |
United States | TV Guide | "Pitch-black and bound to offend anyone who's not on its wavelength, Nick Guthe's entertainingly slick debut is a mordantly funny slice of lust, crime and sleaze life" | POS |
United States | The New York Times | "Delectably vulgar for 20 minutes or so, almost too bad to be true, but (...) it soon loses its cheap-thrills appeal." | NEG |
United States | Variety | "The performances lift 'Mini' out of the gutter of utter cynicism and into the realm of the complex." | POS |
United States | LA Weekly | "A pretentious erotic thriller that gives honest trash a bad name." | NEG |
