B-
"It offers a coming-of-age tale told unflaggingly from the point of view of a pouting, humorless and unsympathetic nine-year-old."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
"The film lacks a sympathetic character even in its eternally petulant child protagonist and is lax in differentiating who's who."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Donald J. Levit
4/5
"An extraordinary French drama about the reactions of a conservative nine-year old girl to the radical politics and changes brought into her life by her parents."
Spirituality and Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
3.5/5
"That [Kevel's] in almost every frame, with the entire film resting on her shoulders, makes documentarian Gavras's first feature even more remarkable."

Kent Turner

"...simply one of the best films ever from a child's point of view."
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
3.5/4

Slant Magazine
Paul Schrodt
A-
"...an adult-level film that does a great job of giving a child's view of a world in the throes of change."
