Kate Taylor Globe and Mail We may be charmed by this sly refusal of Hollywood formulas, or we may react as the girl does with an annoyed and dismissive "What?" Rated: 2/4 Apr 24, 2009 Full Review Jason Anderson Toronto Star A Before Sunrise for the Jonas Brothers demographic, Only is a sweet, subtle and perceptive movie about a fleeting connection between two lonely adolescents.

Audience Member Have to admit, I missed the middle of this, so I do hope to rewatch it again before leaving a proper review. From what I saw, this was pretty good. Slow moving, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The back of the box compared it to Before Sunset, and that's what it reminded me of - but with 12 year olds. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member A really nice, low budget, minimalist, indie film. Very low concept, and very well executed. Jacob Switzer and Elena Hudgins Lyle are excellent in the lead roles of Danny and Vera as they try to kill a day together. Definitely worth checking out if you're a film fan. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member A very distinct Canadian film. A day in the life of a twelve year old, slow and heartfelt. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
