What leads off like a docudrama of the social ills accompanying a misunderstood condition merges into fantasy until, in very clever ways, director Nic Balthazar turns the medium into the message.

Top Critic [Director Balthazar] has made a vivid little film about bullying and cyber-bullying, and done a remarkable job of opening up the head of a silent witness.

Top Critic It would be hard to guess from the final result that Balthazar has never made a film before; Ben X takes full advantage of all that the medium has to offer.

Enriquecido ainda por uma direção de arte que ilustra a tristeza do universo de Ben, este é um projeto artisticamente ambicioso que revela sua sensibilidade particularmente através de seus belos diálogos.

[Director Nic] Balthazar's determination to draw a positive message from a negative situation doesn't quite fit.
