Reception

Dennis Harvey of Variety wrote that the film is a "polished and reasonably entertaining hunk of teen angst, but its familiar suspense elements rely heavily on a “twist” most viewers will see coming a mile off."[1] Jennie Kermode wrote "Everything about this film is exquisite, from its gorgeously textured cinematography to the delicate performances of its stars. Nothing has been left to chance, and the result is compelling viewing."[2]

gollark: No, we need to react the right amount.
gollark: I mean, I suppose if you're dead you're less likely to be hired.
