United States	Janet Maslin The New York Times	"A brave and deeply moving film"	POS
United States	Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times	"A film that stirs in the shadows of memory for everyone who has ever seen it, a film that cannot be classified and can hardly be explained (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times	"Lauzon reaches a pitch of emotional fervor that induces us to experience the rages, fears, hopes and pleasures of childhood all over again."	POS
United Kingdom	Time Out	"Dark, disturbing and utterly compelling, this is coming-of-age as the stuff of nightmare."	POS
