Down by Love Reviews
Buffalo News
Christopher Schobert
The "true story" inspiration does not help, either. The more one reads about the real case, the nastier it seems. It makes Godeau's version look deeply vapid.
Hollywood Reporter
Boyd van Hoeij
Godeau doesn't seem all that bothered with character motivations and backstories.
Chicago Reader
Leah Pickett
Their romance is based on a true story that occurred in a Versailles detention center in 2011, yet it rings false because the actors lack chemistry and their individual narratives are nebulous.
The Public (Buffalo)
M. Faust
While Exarchopoulos's character is adolescently unfocused, the actress herself is naturally compelling.
