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 Says

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

1.5/4

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.

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.

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.

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

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

Tediously, boring with a cliché plot. I’ve seen after school specials done better. Could not even finish this.

Boring. And I love JM!! But this, was boring. Poor acting, on pretty much everyone's part. And the dialogue? Thumbs down. Casting for the daughter Rachel was wrong. Even though other reviews say the chemistry between JM and Rachel was good, I disagree. I suffered through the whole movie to the end simply because I had already invested so much time in it. I hate to say it, but I couldn't wait for it to end. Disappointed. But JM was AWESOME in Game of Thrones!!

Underwhelming and unbelievable action movie. If you can suffer through the first half, It starts to redeem itself an hour and 20 minutes in but not enough to save it completely.

This is a good movie because send how people feels about cancer. This is something they need to make a cure for. Towards the end was real good
