Leslie Felperin Guardian It’s a minor miracle that the cast manages to charm throughout and keep the audience’s sympathies -- instead of repelling us with their manifest dishonesty and delusions. Rated: 3/5 Jun 2, 2025 Full Review Yasmine Kandil Little White Lies Emmanuel Mouret and Carmen Leroi’s fun and fascinating screenplay is far and away the strong point of this project. Sep 3, 2024 Full Review Kevin Maher The Times (UK) Fans of a certain type of cheesy, commercial, Éric Rohmer-inspired French cinema will know immediately that nothing especially convincing, dramatic or even psychologically credible is about to happen over the subsequent 110 minutes. Rated: 2/5 Sep 1, 2024 Full Review Elsa Fernández-Santos El Pais (Spain) ...[Emmanuel Mouret] demonstrates not only earthly wisdom, but also spatial wisdom. The backdrop of the city of Lyon, the high school and its red walls,...everything feels as light and casual as it is authentic and profound. [Full review in Spanish] Jul 11, 2025 Full Review Alejandro Lingenti La Nación (Argentina) With clean shots, symmetrical framing, and subdued dialogue,...Mouret captures an atmosphere of empty harmony and a period mood where passions no longer burn, they slowly evaporate. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Jul 11, 2025 Full Review Luis Martínez El Mundo (Spain) As light in appearance as it is serious in its funny yet sad characterization of feelings. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Jul 10, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
