Leave your thoughts about Beach Rats.
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Julia CooperBeach Rats stands on its own merits as one of the boldest, most original films of the year. It does that incredible thing of making you miss it before it's even over, like fireworks that turn to smoke before you're ready. |
| Tribune News ServiceKatie WalshRiveting and deeply compelling with the one-two punch of Dickinson's astonishing performance and Hittman's direction. |
| San Francisco ChronicleDavid WiegandIt's not the feel-good movie of the year, but it's a powerfully rendered reminder that coming of age can be harrowing, and hurtful to others, even in our purportedly more open-minded country. |
| The PlaylistAndrew CrumpIf the film is tender, it’s merciless at the same time. |
| Village VoiceApril WolfeHittman’s depictions of sexuality, emotional crisis, and parent-teen relationships are rendered here without sentimentality — and with the burning urgency of a stick of dynamite with a lit fuse. |
| San Francisco ChronicleDavid LewisThe bold, masterful Beach Rats, one of the most exquisitely haunting LGBT coming-of-age stories ever told, takes place in the unhip fringes of Brooklyn, a land that time has forgotten. But nothing about this film is forgettable. |
| VarietyGuy LodgeWriter-director Eliza Hittman has a sensitive ear for the way adolescents reveal themselves through evasion: It’s a tension crucial to this anxious, tactile, profoundly sad study of a young man’s journey of sexual self-discovery and self-betrayal. |
| The Hollywood ReporterDavid RooneyEliza Hittman's second feature is very much the work of a filmmaker with her own distinctive voice, combining moody poetry with textural sensuality to evoke the dangerous recklessness that often accompanies sexual discovery. |
| The New York TimesBen KenigsbergThe back-and-forths of the character’s decisions feel real, and Mr. Dickinson’s laconic blankness (you would never guess the actor was British) helps to give the character’s existential crisis a charge. Ms. Hittman is also assured enough to know it can’t be easily resolved. |
| TimeStephanie ZacharekDickinson is superb at tracing that veiled anguish, and Hittman--who wrote and directed the 2013 film It Felt Like Love--is a discreet and sympathetic guide to his fractured world. |
