Critics Consensus

Natalia Dyer's charming performance -- and writer-director Karen Maine's sensitive work -- will leave audiences saying Yes, God, Yes to this coming-of-age dramedy.

Una película que se la juega tocando un tema delicado de la manera mas inocente posible. Tenia un potencial muy grande pero lamentablemente la ejecución no esta a la altura, sencillamente cumple y ya.

Good film! Led by the likeable Natalia Dyer, 'Yes, God, Yes' is a fairly amusing and entertaining watch. It's pretty straightforward and there aren't any thrills or anything, but it is a competently made film that doesn't overstay its welcome; 78 minutes well spent. Dyer is very good, as I knew she would be - I'm a fan of her from 'Stranger Things'. Worth a watch.

I watched this movie expecting something that wasn't good and on par with a Lifetime movie on Sunday. I was very wrong. I guess I have a personal connection with this movie, because I'm a "fallen christian" myself. The movie takes a lot of stabs at organized religion, and brings up a lot of issues from individuality to church and religious politics, which I absolutely enjoyed. For me it really brings to light the controlling aspects of organized religion especially in christianity (don't do anything bad or you're going to hell!). It also touches heavily on how those in control of the church, and those who come off as "holier than thou", do all those things that they say not to do or you'll go to hell. It also brings up some really interesting perspectives on figuring out life, a personal relationship with "god", and most importantly..... issues that are between you and whatever (a god, a diety, a higher power whatever), and no one else needs to be involved. I was expecting some Lifetime movie pro religious movie, and I was pleasantly surprised with a movie that questions everything, addresses lifes issues, and leaves you with that feeling that everything is going to be OK. Give it a watch if you haven't already!

A surprising unfolding of a coming of age story, delivered through stellar subtle comedy, a story of a young woman's tale of discovering the truth behind the secrets people have, to outlay the hypocrisy in the shadows.

"Yes, God, Yes" moves forward in endearing, funny fashion.

Boston Globe

Flatly filmed, drably lit, and sluggishly paced, "Yes, God, Yes" takes a cheeky premise and slowly lets the air out of it.

Rated: 2/4

I was really impressed with this. A small, slight film that gets absolutely to the heart of strangeness...

Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack)

It’s a fantastic slice of millennial nostalgia that takes the fear and desire and awkwardness of teenage sexuality seriously and presents it authentically.

Loud and Clear Reviews

In Yes, God, Yes, a smart 2017 short film about sexuality and religious guilt partly loses its message when stretched over 87 minutes in a full length feature.

Rated: 2.5/5

Yes, God, Yes is the hilariously relatable teen comedy you didn’t know you needed in your life. Don’t let the summary scare you away, give this movie a try if only to experience the awesomeness that is Natalia Dyer.
