Steve Pond TheWrap “Wild Diamonds” is a character study both of Liane and of the culture that has spawned her, and a film that manages to be both empathetic and unforgiving. Aug 8, 2024 Full Review Justin Chang The New Yorker The movie glancingly suggests the soul-rotting effects of beauty worship, but it falls victim to the trap that Liane is trying to avoid: in a sea of worthy candidates, it doesn’t especially stand out. May 30, 2024 Full Review Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Khebizi’s performance– she is in practically every frame– is terrific. Even when the film begins meandering, with a putative romance which doesn’t come off well, you can’t take your eyes off Liane... May 17, 2024 Full Review Emma Kiely Collider This year has given us many movies that allow young women into complex character studies usually reserved for men or older characters, and Wild Diamond is easily one of the best. Rated: 8/10 Nov 18, 2024 Full Review Zhuo-Ning Su Awards Daily It’s a hard-hitting, hot-blooded social drama/character study that shows promise of a new, fiercely assured cinematic voice, even if the story it tells isn’t breaking any ground.
