Dìdi Reviews
DwightBrownInk.com
Dwight Brown
There's enough good comedy/drama here to spawn a TV or streaming series that could become an integral part of American pop culture.
Slant Magazine
Derek Smith
The film speaks unflinchingly to the unique anxieties and frustrations of early teenhood.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
A superb coming-of-age saga that lives in the intersection of youthful euphoria, despair, insecurity, irresponsibility, and fearlessness.
Associated Press
Kaitlyn Huamani
Dìdi's greatest strength lies in the balance it strikes between moments of levity and gravity, often prompting waves of laughter seconds after evoking tears.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Alison Willmore
It recreates the sensation of drowning in your own hormone-churned emotions so vividly that the film would be difficult to watch if its very existence didn't serve as a kind of pressure valve.
New York Times
Alissa Wilkinson
A funny, heartfelt movie, tapping into the audience's latent memories as well as our great relief at no longer being 13.
TheWrap
William Bibbiani
This film marks the emergence of a potentially great dramatic filmmaker, and that makes sense. After all, this is a great film.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
Wang zeroes in on this specific, fleeting moment of life, just a couple of months long, and throws it under his cinematic microscope, examining all the awkward agony and brief ecstasies of this age.
Mashable
Kristy Puchko
Dìdi isn't just a good coming-of-age movie or a great coming-of-age movie. Dìdi is unquestionably one of the most poignant and very best movies of the year.
Observer
Oliver Jones
Set in the early days of social media's takeover, Sean Wang's debut feature about a Taiwanese American kid growing up in the East Bay perfectly captures the emotional jumble of boyhood.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
Dìdi doesn't feel like an exorcism or someone trying to make peace with a younger self... It's more like Wang is curious as to who that boy was, and is recreating a movable scrapbook to figure him out better.
Washington Blade
Ty Burr
The advantage of Wang's film is ultimately in particularity - the agonies and ecstasies of this kid in this culture, trying desperately to figure out who he wants to be while being cherished, in all his aggravating wonder, by the man he became.
Boston Globe
Odie Henderson
If nothing else, "Dìdi" understands, to an astonishing degree, what it's like to be an awkward teenage boy.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
It's a more universal study of being a teenage boy, trying to find something like a sense of identity and working out which lies you can and can't tell yourself.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Claudia Puig
It's such a tender, funny, and honest portrait of being that most awkward of ages: thirteen.
San Francisco Chronicle
Hannah Bae
Wang, the director, is smart to spend much of the camera's time lingering on the young star's expressive face as his wide, inky eyes take in the world around him.
Chicago Reader
Adam Mullins-Khatib
Dìdi is a melancholic, rewarding coming-of-age film.
The Atlantic
Shirley Li
Dìdi sets itself apart by examining more than just the turbulence of growing pains; it's also a period piece that understands the flattening effect the internet has on teenagers in particular.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Movies have a way of overly romanticizing coming-of-age stories, but "Dìdi" dispels with the myth of magically growing up and figuring it all out in under two hours...
AV Club
Jacob Oller
A gutshot coming-of-age story aimed directly at those former teenagers who weathered the great transition from MySpace to Facebook, Dìdi is almost more painful than poignant.
