Vincent (newcomer Julien Baumgartner) is an average high school boy, a good student, and a star swimmer. With his best friend Stephane and his beautiful girlfriend Noémie, high school life couldn't be better for Vincent... until he meets Benjamin (COME UNDONE'S Jeremie Elkaïm). Vincent keeps crossing paths with the new student, until the two finally have a private moment. The next day, Vincent's idyllic life begins to crumble when the school is vandalized with graffiti labeling him a "fag." As the people in his life respond to the news, Vincent faces the inherent challenge of adapting to life as a gay young man. YOU'LL GET OVER IT takes a direct and compassionate look at Vincent's struggle. Like EDGE OF SEVENTEEN, YOU’LL GET OVER IT delves into the universal experiences of coming out, making it easier for future generations. -- Picture This! Entertainment [More]

While Cazeneuve's story is about gay love, it also charts universal truths about adolescent romance and high school politics with great aplomb.

The story's celebration of honesty is commendable, even if the treatment of homophobia is no deeper than the hero's swimming pool.

You can see the emotions of the characters pass through the actors' faces and bodies. Mr. Baumgartner shines brightest, perhaps because his character is the most conflicted.

Genuinely engaging performances from Baumgartner and Maravalidealized are kind of wasted in this idealized and dramatically weightless coming(-out)-of-age story...

A sensitive coming-of-age story that, while not trailblazing in terms of originality, manages to be quietly affecting.

This fast-paced, well-acted film brings emotional integrity to a familiar tale.

There's a naturalness to the entire cast, yet there is considerable depth to the portrayals, and the interplay between the characters is exceptionally rich and nuanced.

There are countless teenagers living secret lives right now, and they don't need hurrahs. They need honesty -- and better films than this.

Even if [it] has a slightly mustry, afterschool special message to impart...the picture delivers it with sufficient charm and complexity to escape TV-movie mediocrity.

Couldn't be more honest or compassionate in depicting the handsome sensitive teenager's coming out story.

A well-done version of an old tale - they manage to make it interesting and Julien Baumgartner makes it feel like his personal story.
