Critics Consensus

Lady Bird delivers fresh insights about the turmoil of adolescence -- and reveals writer-director Greta Gerwig as a fully formed filmmaking talent.

Drake

A coming-of-age teen dramedy, from the POV of a sub-upper-middle-class Catholic white millennial from California—so I could plenty empathize, and I do appreciate Greta Gerwig representing our generation on the screen, but those intersectionalities mean the conflicts can only be so much, that they're all of a nature of which they'll sort themselves out with the passing of time, and so many dramatic scenes based on them come off as melodramatic performances from the temporality of a teenager (when there's so time & again a dipping POV following the mother, who should be wiser). All that said, the writing is a quite competent Hollywood 3-act screenplay, with plenty of chuckle-inducing lines, multiple tear-rendering deliveries of monologue-y lines, and a rollicking story to fill a feature-length. Watching in 2023 a film from 2017 set in 2002-03 is uncanny, but this is a worthy addition to the canon for the 21st-century's progression of what John Hughes could muster in the '80s, and the hipster touches (e.g. the Joan Didion epigraph the local band) and depictions of life for an adolescent in the '00s stirred in me that romantic yearning for a simpler time of pre-cynic enjoyment of social living. A full dose of emotional content to invest one's bit of time into.

Film Companion

Lady Bird combines wisdom and tenderness, humor and grace. It's light-footed without being lightweight. And it captures, with great feeling, the turbulence of a girl growing up. I can't recommend it enough.

Greta Gerwig's directorial debut, Lady Bird, is the millisecond of possibility, the speck of unflinching nerve, which might only occur once in our lives.

It is a female coming-of-age story that is both nostalgic and unflinching, and it will ensnare you deeply in its grasp.

Gerwig’s debut is one that will always be relevant, no matter the year. Music will change, fashion will change, but the feelings that Gerwig captures will be forever.
