Anya Couture Geek Vibes Nation Aug 10
6.5/10
It’s a different way to approach someone coming to terms with their identity & sexuality and it apologizes for nothing, which should garner respect from those who have shared any amount of Robin’s struggles. Go to Full Review
Andrew Parker The Gate 04/19/2024
6/10
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. Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review
Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue 01/26/2024
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. Go to Full Review
Jennie Kermode Eye for Film 06/05/2023
4/5
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. Go to Full Review
Joe Lipsett Queer.Horror.Movies. 05/28/2023
4.5/5
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. Go to Full Review

Account I 12/06/2024 I love the main character, they remind me of myself. The twists and relationship between the other characters are amazing. The ending of the movie made me drop my jaw and left me thinking. I love it! See more Sarah M 04/19/2024 Just loved this film. Brilliant and touching and funny! Must watch! See more HEBERT P 04/19/2024 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. See more Stephen E 04/19/2024 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. See more X C 04/19/2024 Incredible coming of age movie from one of Canada's brightest new directors. What a hilarious, absurd, touching, and timeless film! See more Stephen N 04/19/2024 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! See more Read all reviews
