Critic Reviews

An absolute stunner of a movie.Full Review

Peter Travers
Rolling Stone

With the pitiless, devastating Fat Girl, Catherine Breillat puts men and women, boys and girls on notice: When fantasy, hypocrisy, and manipulation mix in a wet, sandy place, you dive into sex at your own risk.Full Review

Lisa Schwarzbaum
Entertainment Weekly

Despite the disappointing conclusion, it's hard not to be affected by the film, because of the director's frank approach to her subject and the sheer skill with which she tells her story.Full Review

David Stratton
Variety

Much more than a perfectly realized vignette about seduction. It is the latest and most powerful dispatch yet from Ms. Breillat, France's most impassioned correspondent covering the war between the sexes.Full Review

Stephen Holden
The New York Times

Proves to be a remarkably lean and incisive film about the fateful power of sexuality.Full Review
