Critics Consensus

Burdened with action clichés and tripped up by a late plot twist, Sweet Girl wastes a potentially resonant story and some solid work from its well-matched leads.

Audience Consensus

Lower your expectations, Jason Momoa fans -- he's an entertaining action star, but Sweet Girl is a slow journey to an unforgivably dopey twist.

Don't watch, half decent plot and action. The ending totally ruins the film it's stupid. The ending makes it a very pointless watch

This is the worst movie I've seen in years, and that says a lot because I have watched so many.

It's a well done action thriller with more depth and emotions than I thought it would be. The main characters are so well played by Isabela Merced and Jason Momoa. It obviously won't win any awards but I had a very entertaining watch. I'll keep hoping for a sequel even though it probably never happens😭😥🤧

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

This movie had the potential to be pretty decent, but missed the mark by a country mile. Terrible acting, major holes in the plot, and every cliche you could possibly imagine - to name a few, made this movie unbearable. If I could have given this movie zero stars, I would have.

Esta buena, podrían haber jugado por lo seguro e intentar hacer una película de accion genérica pero intentaron algo diferente. Aunque la historia tampoco es una maravilla el buen ritmo, la accion y los momentos de interacción padre/hija complementan muy bien y termina siendo super correcta.

A dour slog through rote conspiratorial territory without a distinguishing factor to be found beyond the capable lead.

[A] cynical and violent exercise that never figures out which story it wants to tell.

The plot is wilfully dumb, the message pernicious. Momoa walks through it, his emotions running the gamut from A to... well, just A.

Rated: 2/5

If you're going to watch Sweet Girl, expect the unexpected. Your jaw might drop in utter confusion, and pure shock as a decently crafted actioner gets completely ruined by one single twist.

Rated: D

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

I have to say while [Sweet Girl] had its faults I actually enjoyed it. It’s nothing stellar by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s a decent popcorn flick.

Rated: 7/10

Mendoza kept me locked into his story, confused and frustrated at times, but entertained throughout.
