What to Know

Critics Consensus

Impressive work from Bella Thorne in the title role notwithstanding, Girl struggles to differentiate itself from other female-fronted revenge thrillers.

Charles Bramesco Little White Lies Thorne's capable of more than this, even if the question of how much more remains unresolved. Rated: 2/5 Jun 1, 2021 Full Review Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting Though it ultimately amounts to a routine revenge thriller, Faust coaxes impressive acting from his leads and demonstrates skillful promise for future efforts. Rated: 2.5/5 Dec 7, 2020 Full Review Tomris Laffly RogerEbert.com A wobbly and desperately unimaginative mesh-up of contemporary noir and a Southern-fried tale of ancestral trouble. Rated: 1.5/4 Nov 20, 2020 Full Review Zachary Goldkind In Review Online [Girl is] an unfortunately haphazard work that attempts to shape itself according to Thorne's presence Jan 25, 2022 Full Review Johnny Loftus Decider Bella Thorne delivers a performance full of grit, unvarnished emotion, and commanding physical presence. Apr 9, 2021 Full Review Lindsay Traves CGMagazine The gritty female fronted thriller is a fun trend that blew me away in films like Blood on Her Name.... But, done wrong, it can feel like a shallow female centric film that can't avoid a male focused narrative. That's what happened in Girl. Rated: 3/10 Feb 24, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Laurie S It is utter rubbish. It had the potential to be fairly good but the screenwriter took too many mind bending drugs and lost his way. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/23/24 Full Review Ari M The dialogue 😂 The acting 👎 The "twists" 😒 What a let down Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/15/23 Full Review Cristian s Una historia rota con personajes rotos en un entorno roto. A medida que avanzaba me fue gustando cada vez menos, podría haber sido mejor pero se deja ver. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/11/23 Full Review Izzy D worst effing movie ever. i hate bella thornes acting. its so bad. i truly wish i could take back the time ive lost while watching this movie. the writing is so bad and its unbelievable that someone put the plot on paper and thought "we should add belle thorne". i get second hand embarrassment watching this movie. so fun to make fun of with my boyfriend. definitely would recommend if u wanna feel rage. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/28/23 Full Review Chris M What am I missing? After finding the person she was going to murder dead, she should have just left town and the sheriff would have no reason to go after her. It's either she's after revenge for the murder of the man she was going to murder or the sheriff is an stupid criminal who goes after someone who had no idea he was involved. Either way it's stupid as hell. I always say when creating characters the first thing is to make them people first. She's not a three dimensional person, she doesn't even have a fucking name, just a generic pronoun GIRL. I've seen more color from a Christopher Nolan Batman movie. There's more dark clouds and grey to make Robert Eggers orgasm. This is boring, this is dumb and gritty just to be gritty. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/14/23 Full Review RachieRach86 I kept waiting for some big climax or point to the whole movie and it was just a big pile of sh I t. Hour and a half of my life I'll never get back. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
