New York Times

Khebizi brings palpable desperation to the role of Liane, despite the limited script, while the cinematographer Noé Bach intimately frames Liane like we’re intruding on her space.

Slant Magazine

The film is at its best when it’s keyed to its main character’s breakneck energy.

Rated: 2.5/4

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.

Always Good Movies

Flaws aside, this is a film worth wrestling with—brimming with electricity, as if told through the fingertips.

Rated: 3/5

ScreenAnarchy

Agathe Riedinger creates great intimacy with documentary style camera work with the help of Malou Khebizi's incredibly natural, vulnerable performance in a soul-baring role.
