“Wildly funny and deeply moving in equal measure, it is a work rich in larrikin character but universal in its themes and appeal. As Greta embraces her blossoming self, so to does Australian cinema welcome another memorable movie heroine.”
“It can be summed up in one simple adjective…utterly marvellous. The focus of the film may be on young people but the antics are something that should appeal to any age, particularly those who remember the 1970s, their childhood awkwardness, or that moment when they suddenly grew up.”
“Each shot is artfully staged like a living diorama, packed with whimsical details and corner-of-your-eye visual jokes. A bright and occasionally subversive take on teen growing pains that gives fresh legs to a familiar genre. We’re lucky to call this one our own.”
