Critic Reviews for My Best Friend

All Critics (8) | Fresh (8)

A tender coming of age story, that upturns coming out narrative conventions to offer a rich, delicate portrayal of friendship.

Gay Essential
These are likeable, talented young actors who have terrific presence on-screen and create superb rhythms with each other.

Rich Cline
Shadows on the Wall
My Best Friend is a mature portrait focused on the relationship that these characters slowly build. [Full Review in Spanish]

María Fernanda Mugica
La Nación (Argentina)
My Best Friend captures that confusing stage with sensitivity and subtlety, and does so by portraying the proto-amorous bond between two adolescent males. [Full review in Spanish]

Gaspar Zimerman
Clarín
My Best Friend marks a before and after in films about the gay community. It's no longer about a marginalized minority, but rather expressing the universal feelings that we all feel regardless of background. [Full Review in Spanish]

Emiliano Basile
EscribiendoCine
The movie is a smart, aching look at the ways young people can fall in love, even when they know the object of their affection doesn't feel the same way.

Steve Murray
ArtsATL
A moving chronicle of a tender but fraught friendship that never strikes a false note. It is all the more powerful for eschewing feel-good concepts about the way people come into our lives and how they're capable of changing us.
