Critic Reviews

I'm Not Scared is a reminder of true childhood, of its fears and speculations, of the way a conversation can be overheard but not understood, of the way that the shape of the adult world forms slowly through the mist.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Worth seeing not only because it's a highly effective thriller, but also because it's a finely tuned evocation of innocence at the mercy of adult cynicism.Full Review

Claudia Puig
USA Today

Watching it is like being lost in somebody's richly moody campfire story -- it's so good, in fact, that only once it's over do you realize you've been holding your marshmallows too close to the flame. Full Review

Wesley Morris
Boston Globe

With a taste for dark lyricism, the director delicately emphasizes the contrast between surface innocence and subterranean danger, and between grown-up secrets and boyhood bravery.Full Review

Lisa Schwarzbaum
Entertainment Weekly

With a graceful confidence Salvatores has made a movie in which good and evil flow into each other as easily as day and night.Full Review
