      Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse Even if a bit excessive in its drama, “American Girl” is an exceptional movie that shows the difficulties of reverse diaspora in a rather realistic fashion, while carrying enough drama to deem the movie quite entertaining. Rated: 7 Mar 3, 2024 Full Review Roger Moore Movie Nation A richly-detailed coming-of-age remembrance of fitting in when you dont want to in a place -- Taiwan -- where fitting in is everything, Rated: 3/4 Mar 12, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
