New York Times

Soulless, joyless and depressingly graceless, Alien Girl plays like an early Guy Ritchie knockoff without the jokes or Cockney accents.

Rated: 1/5

New York Post

In his feature debut, Bormatov doesn't much bother with things like character development, relying instead on raw brutality, profanity and sex.

Rated: 2.5/4

Los Angeles Times

From its title, "Alien Girl" seems to promise some kind of playful intergalactic adventure. That, it is not.

Rated: 2/5

Shared Darkness

Alien Girl exudes a wearying, recombinant raison d'tre; it's as if all the parts of a dozen American crime thrillers were distilled through a heavy sociocultural filter, reconstituted, and then aped in middling fashion.

Rated: D+

Boxoffice Magazine

Though it's aware of post-Soviet balkanization and the many terrible ways Eastern European men can behave, it mostly seems to unironically enjoy degradation.

Rated: 1.5/5

NYC Movie Guru

Gritty and action-packed, but often contrived and monotonous while lacking enough of a heart and brain to be a truly suspenseful and engrossing Russian gangster film.

Good crime movie. Features an unusual, abrupt ending.

A solid crime drama. It offers up a twist from typical thug capers but overall nothing is too surprising. The film fails to make certain leaps that would have amazed and made the film stand out.

A very, gritty Russian crime epic. The title is a bit weird because its not an "alien" lmao. idk wtf was that for. But it is a very cool and slick thriller.

Not an easy film to stick with if you are looking for a thriller, rather, The Alien Girl is an introspective piece portraying the reality of gangster life in the Balkans of the 1990's.
