Critic Reviews

Carrie Rickey

Paolo Virzi's film looks at school as the microcosm of society and at fathers too self-absorbed to be there for their daughters. He combines the themes played in "Mean Girls" and "Look at Me" and makes them vibrant. Read full review

Michael O'Sullivan

A blend of gentle comedy and poignant drama. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Ken Fox

Despite outward appearances, Paolo Virzi's utterly charming fable is actually a razor-sharp political satire. Read full review

Michael Wilmington

Though "Caterina" is unusually well-acted and crafted for this kind of movie--and both more than casually insightful and irreverent about modern Italian school life, teenage mores and politics--Giancarlo is the one character who makes the movie special. Read full review

Keith Phipps

Teghil is a winning lead. Read full review

Frank Scheck

Ultimately neither funny nor touching enough to make much of an impact, but it does offer many small, insightful moments along the way. Read full review

Ernest Hardy

Director Paolo Virzi (who co-wrote the script with Francesco Bruni) errs badly by creating totems and types in lieu of characters. Read full review

A touching and funny movie, cast largely with young teenagers. I much preferred this film to "Mean Girls," which has some similar elements. If you don't mind subtitles check out this film.

Other than Caterina, there wasn't one charachter in this movie that was likeable. By the end I was hoping they would all disappear.
