Globe and Mail

For all its quirks, at its heart Adult Adoption is a thoughtful coming-of-age story that will have you rooting for its complicated heroine.

Chris Knight

National Post

There is still much to admire, most particularly in Moon’s committed performance. And as far as subject matter goes, Adult Adoption is very much in a creative category all its own.

Rated: 3/5

Director Karen Knox plays with the tropes of romantic comedy in this different kind of dating game

Ellie Moons script and performance shine in Karen Knoxs fantastically constructed world, which makes Adult Adoption a real breath of fresh air.

Rated: 4/5

One Room With A View

Knox’s feature debut, with a distinctive kindness at its core, is a complete triumph. Its gentleness gives way to a profound search for belonging, while realising maybe we’re all on this search together.

Rated: 4/5

Amber Wilkinson

Screen International

Adult Adoption is scattered with many... little lessons about connections found in unexpected places without labouring the point, and embraces the often unexpectedly warm messiness of real life.
