Youthful cliches trump insight in Very Good Girls.
July 25, 2014
Very Good Girls has a breezy yet bittersweet, vaguely nostalgic vibe.
July 23, 2014
A drama that feels like an old person's idea of what young people are like.

Appreciably different and well acted throughout, and sincerely engaging in patches... [but] ultimately succumbs to sigh-inducing artificiality.

We should forget the contrivances because we're wrapped up in how the girls act during the aftermath, but we aren't given that privilege.

Will any film this year feature a moment more pretentious than David asking Lily to read a few lines of Sylvia Plath's poetry before their first kiss? That guy deserves a smack to the kisser all right.

Despite a finely wrought lead performance by Dakota Fanning, the drama feels more like the stuff of a mild - and dated - YA novel than an involving exploration of female experience.

"Very Good Girls" is far from a perfect movie, but I enjoyed its spirit and atmosphere, even as I objected to some of the key elements.

Bland, brooding coming-of-age drama wastes talented cast.

Disappointingly, Foner's young heroines are defined primarily by their reactions to other people. It's a great credit to Olsen and, especially, Fanning that they manage to make these characters vibrant and sympathetic anyway.

The film treats a complicated experience with painstaking simplicity.

One insurmountable problem is that the stars, especially Ms. Olsen, 25, are too old for their roles. Another is that the movie has more characters than it can begin to accommodate in 91 minutes.
