Girls of the Sun Ratings & Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
Director and co-writer Eva Husson awkwardly combines taut action with treacly melodrama.
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
"Girls of the Sun" has an air of authenticity and grit that's convincing, and Farahani, an Iranian-born actress, makes us care.
AV Club
Roxana Hadadi
Girls Of The Sun prioritizes that feeling of female unity against male oppression, a through-line that alternately limits and expands its narrative.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
"Girls of the Sun" is a film of admirable ambition but vexingly uneven execution.
indieWire
Eric Kohn
Barreling forward with fits of strong drama and underwritten characters, Girls of the Sun features just enough good scenes to make one wish they held together as a whole.
Slant Magazine
Pat Brown
With its naked celebration of self-sacrificial combat and idealization of the soldier as an avenging angel, it strikes a tone redolent of old-school war propaganda.
AWFJ.org
Nell Minow
The commitment and understanding of the women who band together in the midst of tragedy and chaos is touchingly portrayed in a rare film that shows the experience of women in armed conflict.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Tim Cogshell
This script is terrible, but the story and the filmmaking is very good.
Los Angeles Times
Carlos Aguilar
[I]f only more of "Girls of the Sun" had that empowering sentiment as a primary aim, the filmmaker's earnest intentions would manifest more organically.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
"Girls of the Sun," unlike the women who populate it, is weak and often corny.
RogerEbert.com
Barbara Scharres
"Girls of the Sun" is a well-meaning, timid tribute that follows the usual pattern of the war correspondent subgenre, glorifying its brave subjects without taking any risks.
TheWrap
Sharon Waxman
The emotion is honestly won. This is, after all, how it has happened for hundreds if not thousands of women victimized by Isis's brutality.
Slant Magazine
Sam C. Mac
Its most emotionally charged moments buckle under the weight of a ceaseless and manipulative score.
Los Angeles Times
Justin Chang
Representational merits alone can't distinguish this movie's clumsy farrago of good intentions, ham-fisted story choices and cloddishly on-the-nose dialogue.
Variety
Jay Weissberg
Interested parties are better off checking out some of the documentaries, such as "Gulstan, Land of Roses," rather than this well-intentioned yet clich-riddled lunge at the tear ducts.
AWFJ.org
Betsy Bozdech
Girls of the Sun may be a war movie, but its empathy and compassion are what win the day.
AWFJ.org
MaryAnn Johanson
I'm not sure it entirely works as a film, but do we need a portrait of modern women soldiers fighting for their nation and their families? Yes, we do.
AV Club
A.A. Dowd
Their courageous, inspiring inspiration deserved a better movie, one with more nuanced plotting and a less overbearing score. Failing that, couldn't Girls Of The Sun have let the pots righteously boil?
AWFJ.org
Cate Marquis
Girls of the Sun is a powerful, unblinking drama about the horror of war, offering a unique female-centric view into a conflict that ravaged so many.
The Hollywood Reporter
Jordan Mintzer
At once mildly harrowing and completely over-the-top, intermittently intense yet so unsubtle it winds up doing damage to its own worthy discourse.
