El Pais (Spain)
Rating: 3/4 --
The script by Alan Ormsby never decides whether violence is the problem or the solution, but his teen protagonists feel real.

Blunt Review
Rating: 4.5/5 --

Rating: 4/4 --
Makepeace is excellent as the slight protagonist, and Baldwin is perfect as the brooding, misunderstood mammoth.
