Reviews

  • Wavering between light comedy and drama with wonderfully natural performances, 17 Girls doesn't judge anyone's behavior.

  • 17 Girls has a powerful and loving sense of place.

  • Underwater shots of spherical midsections floating past the camera prove that they understand the beauty of bodies in motion, even if their storytelling feels a little stillborn.

  • Impressively, the rookie scribe-helmers' sense of equilibrium is unerring and also surprisingly subtle.

  • So what does 17 Girls, the debut feature film from sisters Delphine and Muriel Coulin, add to the "pregnancy pact" canon? A lot of style, but not much substance.
