A powerful movie to change your mind. But above all, it will teach you that> being inclusive isn't about you giving me the key to your house, it's about you welcoming me.

This film is a beautiful look at life growing up in a world that is just somehow a little different than you’d like. And it presents a story a little different that you might expect. This is a unique perspective on life growing up - a look at character we all had in our life but rarely gets the starring character in the story.

Incredible coming of age movie from one of Canada's brightest new directors. What a hilarious, absurd, touching, and timeless film!

Director Anderson puts every dollar up and then some on the screen with loads of production value, subtle characterization, gorgeous music and numerous story-within-a-story flourishes to create his odd yet eerily believable 80s-era southern Alberta. Tons of fun!

Andrew Parker

The Gate

There’s a lot to love in Before I Change My Mind – enough to recommend it overall – but also a considerable amount of teen movie cliches and narrative vagueness that imbalance the final whole.

Rated: 6/10

Original Cin

With a clever premise and a boisterous musical parody, the teen dramedy Before I Change My Mind charms until it stumbles in its last act.

Rated: B

Cinemalogue

Capturing the look and vibe of 1980s nostalgia in all its cheesy glory, this Canadian coming-of-age drama also finds a fresh perspective to explore adolescent angst and teen sexuality.

Eye for Film

A lot of effort has gone into production design, resulting in a film which looks really good for its budget, but the most important factor is Anderson’s eye for the sort of details which stand out to teenagers.

Rated: 4/5

Queer.Horror.Movies.

Before I Change My Mind is an exceptional coming of age film that is emotionally impactful without being saccharine or histrionic. The performances are quiet and the narrative is surprisingly gentle. This is an assured, rich, and powerful feature debut.

Rated: 4.5/5

Unlike such visuals, the film’s freshness comes with considered angling that reconsiders classic tropes of school bullies, distant parents, and burgeoning self-discovery.
