I do think the Sichels got right much of the awkwardness of teenage transitions into adulthood and of the comfort girls find in the company of other equally confused and hormonally distressed girls.
01/01/00
transcends its occasional operatic moments by providing plenty of soft-spoken reality
07/28/05
Sichel strips her story to the essential, offering a film that's tough, compassionate and true.

Top CriticThough the main charcater is lesbian, Sichel's gritty youth melodrama is so rich in ideas amd so roght in its texture that it goes beyond a coming-out ot even a lesbian-themed story.

Part of the reason All Over Me possesses such a stark sense of realism is because of the keenly-observed, unaffected performances of the lead actors.

Top CriticA confident first feature.

Top CriticAlex and Sylvia Sichel have taken a familiar coming-of-age story, something that might work as an Afterschool Special, and given it the contour, grit and white-hot energy of something much more.

Sichel is just great with her cast.

Top CriticReveals the adolescence most everyone went through (or witnessed) but no one talks about.
01/01/00
This is not new territory, but it is a completely new exploration of it.
01/01/00
Given great lyrical force by Folland, it comes closer to unlocking the secret lives of girls than any other recent American movie.
10/03/02
It's a movie for riot grrrls of all ages.
