As a whole, ‘What We Hide' has the feeling of an old after-school special, a melodramatic lesson about a topical issue. However, simply bringing up the spectre of the opioid crisis isn’t enough.

What We Hide thrums with the rhythms set by these actors, and the specific sisterly bonds they easily convince us exist—simultaneously wounded and wonderful—craft a film of inestimable humanity.

A story that needs to be told. Glad I had a chance to see it in a movie theater. Mckenna Grace was excellent and the her sister as well. Worth seeing!

What We Hide was an extraordinary film that left a lasting impression on me. The acting by the two young girls, Mckenna Grace and Jojo Regina, was nothing short of astonishing, especially considering their age. Their performances were so raw and powerful that I genuinely believe they deserve serious awards recognition. What struck me most was how the film gave such a clear window into their lives. Beyond its artistry and the incredible cinematography and imagery, the film shed a much-needed light on a crisis that doesn’t seem to get spoken about enough - the devastating impact of drug addiction on children and families.

Boring movie was really slow. Some good dramatic and emotional scenes and Reese is a good character but overall not great and not entertaining.

An interesting film that manages to capture the intensity of the drama it presents. Although it has imperfect moments, it is sustained by its solid performances, which allow you to connect and accompany the journey of these two sisters as chaos unites them. It's a film worth watching and invites you to reflect on the injustice of a life marked by drug addiction.
