This is a film that stays with you, resonating deeper than many a more cut-and-dried rites-of-passage tale.

[A] Belgian coming-of-age drama that's just as hazily open-ended as childhood summers tend to be.

The Giants, a lovely, sportive, bucolic film, turns Belgium into an annexe of Huck Finn country.

Wistful, beautiful-looking but as transient as that land of lost content.

Mar 01, 2016Reminiscent of Stand By Me and Mean Creek, only without the golden nostalgia of the former and the bite of the latter, The Giants is beautifully shot and engrossing enough while it lasts.Daniel P Super Reviewer

Sep 20, 2013Huckleberry Fin set in the Ardennes. The fantastic sound track by 'The Bony King of Nowhere' is what lifts this film up. It scored two prizes in the Quainzaine des Réalisateurs section in CannesWilliam H Super Reviewer
