Good One Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Collias grounds "Good One" in every single scene, leaving those woods a victor in both character and performer.
GQ
Esther Zuckerman
The classic idea of a quote-unquote "Sundance film" is the little indie with a big heart. That's a description that can imply a certain amount of corniness. That is not the case with this film...
Hollywood Reporter
David Rooney
Tiny but satisfying, Good One is a strong calling card for the writer-director and for gifted discovery Lily Collias in the central role.
Autostraddle
Drew Gregory
A confident work of subtlety and truth.
The Film Stage
Jordan Raup
Through an accumulation of minute details and uneasy glances, the drama becomes a portrait of increasingly crossed boundaries leading to an ultimate breaking point.
Variety
Guy Lodge
First seen two years ago in a secondary role in "Palm Trees and Power Lines," Collias impresses in a role that doesn't grant her any great extremes of expression.
Harper's Bazaar
Tomris Laffly
Subtly dark, humorous, and wise, Good One leans into its wilderness backdrop in all of its liberating (and, sometimes, paradoxically claustrophobic) properties.
indieWire
David Ehrlich
Good One is the kind of movie that tightens its complete lack of tension into a knot in the pit of your stomach.
Film Inquiry
Kristy Strouse
With a subtle sort of strength, Good One is a delicate but effective coming-of-age tale with a stellar, slowly simmering performance from Lily Collias.
Screen Rant
Mae Abdulbaki
The film is compelling and quietly thought-provoking as it peels back the layers of the relationships at the forefront of the story.
Consequence
Clint Worthington
From the get, Donaldson has a tremendous command of pace and silence, laying the desperation of middle age (and how it looks to those whose lives are still ahead of them) bare with little more than a gesture or a closeup.
Above the Line
Edward Douglas
Disappointing, because you get to the end of it and wonder, "What was the point? What are we supposed to get out of this?"
The Movie Cricket
Sean P. Means
Collias must carry a lot on her shoulders, considering the shallowness of the plot, but her eyes and manner are captivating.
Spliced Personality
Sean Burns
A striking, assured debut, and very close to a great one.
Slant Magazine
Greg Nussen
The film instinctively and lucidly shows how sometimes a coming of age can be thrust upon a person against their will.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
The thing that strikes me most about India Donaldson's GOOD ONE is just how effective the script is at building towards its final act of rebellion. It's a subtle yet powerful transition that recolors everything in the lead-up.
Film Threat
Bobby LePire
Good One is a carefully crafted character study. It's brought to life by perfectly calibrated performances, led by the young but brilliant Lily Collias.
Paste Magazine
Jesse Hassenger
A striking introduction to Donaldson's unflinching eye.
The Movie Buff
Hector A. Gonzalez
Inspired by the works of Kelly Reichardt, particularly one of her most recognized works in Old Joy, India Donaldson's feature-length Good One is a delicate and observant girlhood drama that transcends its coming-of-age label.
For the Win (USA Today)
Cory Woodroof
Good One is a striking debut that understands the difficult passage from youth to adulthood, fraught with malevolence and disappointment.
