Drew Gregory Autostraddle It's exhilarating to watch a movie this bold in its craft that has as much messy bisexual representation. Sep 10, 2021 Full Review Justin Lowe Hollywood Reporter Caudeli's choice of formats does more to emphasize the shortcomings of the narrative than convey any type of bold stylistic statement. Jul 29, 2019 Full Review Andrew Stover Film Inquiry Ruth Caudeli's Second Star on the Right is a finely-acted, exquisitely crafted exploring adulthood, friendship and femininity with contrasting styles. Oct 24, 2019 Full Review Carey-Ann Pawsey Orca Sound Tension between the friends raises to a breaking point during Angelica's bachelorette party. Alcohol and constant teasing from her friends lead to Emilia going too far. Rated: 3/5 Aug 6, 2019 Full Review Enrique Acosta Film Threat Heartbreaking and uplifting. Second Star on the Right is an intimate slice-of-life drama with elements of magical realism. Rated: 10/10 Aug 2, 2019 Full Review Kristy Strouse Film Inquiry Second Star on the Right winningly captures our varying levels of maturation and individualism, with beauty and style.
