Critic Reviews

Roger Ebert

This is a movie for those who sometimes, in the stillness of the sleepless night, are so filled with hope and longing that they feel like -- well, like uttering wild goat cries to the moon. You know who you are. Read full review

Edward Guthmann

Pool captures the crazed urgency of first love -- the feeling of a passion so fierce that even a disapproving society can't crush it. Read full review

Loren King

Boldly goes where Hollywood rarely treads: into the passionate, intense and complex world of girls at the point in their lives when self-discovery is tempered by enormous vulnerability.

Ella Taylor

Blessed with a lovely score and strong acting, but crippled by an awkward, mawkish script. Read full review

New Times (L.A.) Gregory Weinkauf

The movie is beautiful to look at (lensed by Pierre Gill) as are the girls, but it takes its clunky message so seriously that it often verges on silliness. Read full review

Paula Nechak

It has a frenetic, unsettled edginess that chafes against its serene, woodsy, upscale private school setting. Read full review

Kimberley Jones

Isn't much more than a self-indulgent picture about the feeble delirium of a lovesick girl -- lightweight stuff that labors to seem terribly important. Read full review

This fine film gave pause to think about love be it between two women or a woman & a man. The intensity of the young woman's love for the other transcends the gender issue. Both were deeply touched by this encounter, and will make them more sensitive to their lives ahead.

Both were deeply touched by this encounter, and will make them more sensitive to their lives ahead. (except, of course, for tori....., symbolized by the flight of the eagle, finally healed and ready for freedom just as she was.) Well written, well acted, beautifully presented. I will recommend this film to all my friends and family. … Expand

A powerful film about the sometimes crippling power of love of another. As powerful as it is tragic, this is a movie I would not recommend to the faint of art, but to anyone who appreciates the power of love.

If you are a stone-hearted person like me, then this is exactly the movie you should watch. Even as a straight male, I found the movie quite heart-arming.

Yes, the movie has it's flaws.It's not always believable, there are some plot holes here and there and the ending was a little bit over the top.But, the acting was excellent, the story interesting and the movie was entertaining.It's without a doubt one of the best romantic dramas.

A beautiful movie that takes the viewer into a world that they have once experienced and sometimes been hurt by. Finally, a movie from the US that isn't crap and full of cliches [Ed: Actually, it's from Canada]... but in saying that... sometimes it drawn out of perspective by a A beautiful movie that takes the viewer into a world that they have once experienced and sometimes been hurt by.
