- Critics' reviews
-
-
"This highly intelligent comedy (which cleaned up at this year's Césars) doesn't seek to shock or inspire, but merely documents teen moodiness in all its tedious unpredictability."
-
"It is a provocative and potentially rich premise, to be sure, but the execution here is somewhat lacking."
-
"It's more realistic than any TV reality show."
