Seattle Post-IntelligencerSean Axmaker
Hartley's soft spot for offbeat romances is trumped by irony and sloganeering dialogue. Read full review

Christian Science MonitorDavid Sterritt
There's heavy influence from the "Brave New World" brand of dystopian fantasy, but engaging performances and a stylized visual approach lend it originality. Read full review

Chicago ReaderJonathan Rosenbaum
Flaky, funny, and sexy. Read full review

New York PostV.A. Musetto
Not one of Hartley's most successful efforts, but it's witty, daring, different and a welcome alternative to Hollywood pap. Read full review

The A.V. ClubScott Tobias
There's ample opportunity here for a sharp consumerist satire, like a dryer cousin to the candy-colored pop-culture send-up “Josie And The Pussycats,” but Hartley misses his own joke. Read full review

VarietyRobert Koehler
Unconvincingly attempts to update the futurist dystopian traditions of Orwell, Huxley and William Gibson. Read full review

Portland OregonianM. E. Russell

TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonagh
Hartley's score is lovely and he makes excellent use of digital video, but the film's paucity of provocative ideas is its undoing. Read full review

Numbing story. Read full review

New York Daily NewsElizabeth Weitzman
Hartley's satire of consumer-driven sexuality is undermined by the straight-faced decision to cast affectless model Tatiana Abracos as the heroine. Read full review

The New York TimesStephen Holden
Evokes a mood of tenderness. Beyond that, it is a weightless, sentimental and intellectually lazy effort from an independent filmmaker whose movies seem increasingly insubstantial. Read full review

Film ThreatPeter Hanson
A profoundly unnecessary movie, The Girl From Monday is an embarrassment. Read full review

Village VoiceEd Halter
A monotonous, unenlightening experience. Read full review
