| Globe and MailLiam LaceyUltimately, the credibility and good intentions of Finn's Girl are sabotaged by the script's failure to tell just one story well. |
| User ReviewPrivate USolid film about grief, love and acceptance. Well acted, especially by the children. Deals with bigger issues than just the lesbian relationships at it's core. One slightly implausible plot twist at the end. Or was it? Maybe I'm just being too much of a man. |
| User ReviewYangqiao LI watched the film when I was working with Chicago International Lesbian and Gay Film Festival. It's definitely one of the best entries! |
| User ReviewNancy H. FOverall very good effort and good job by the crew, director and actors of this little Indy film..Dr. Finn Jefferies (Brooke Johnson) was in a long term relationship and raising a child with her partner Nancy but Nancy passes away from breast cancer. So she is left behind to care for their daughter Zelly played by Maya Ritter and continue working at the abortion clinic. She receives death threats and consumed by her work and by a rebound fling with a much younger woman, Dr. Finn is oblivious to Zelly's latest attention-seeking anticsâ"â"shoplifting, smoking dope and skipping school. Dr. Finn's emotional and professional struggles are continually underscored by the amusing misadventures of Zelly and her best friends Eve and Max. As the trio of kids grapple with their emerging sexualities, Zelly finally discovers the astonishing identity of her true biological parents. This is a thought provoking film with a very surprising ending that will leave you speechless (in a positive way definitely). Added to my private collection and recommended! |
| User ReviewWalter MLesbians who look like lesbians, mediocre writing, extremely opportunistic, decent acting from the kids, but not so much the adults. I thought it meant well, but tried to make so many political and social comments that none of them were thoroughly developed. Still, not an awful lesbian movie... just not one of the best. |
| User ReviewErica TPretty good film, but the ending didn't really make sense. |
| User ReviewVicky PIf only this film were better scripted or edited |
| User ReviewAnastasia BIt's very very encouraging, that there are people out there who strive to make stories like this one heard, speaking against discrimination of the gay people, and supporting their rights to parenting. Brooke Johnson is impressive in the role of Dr. Finn.A very honest effort by the film-makers, but not much of a result, I am afraid. Wish I had more stars to give! |
| User ReviewMichelle CToo tedious but can concentrate in the relationship between Finn, Sally, Diana and Sally's "father". |
