Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Part of the reason All Over Me possesses such a stark sense of realism is because of the keenly-observed, unaffected performances of the lead actors.

rotten:
Less successful at portraying indecision than it is at inducing boredom.

fresh:
Given great lyrical force by Folland, it comes closer to unlocking the secret lives of girls than any other recent American movie.

fresh:
Though the main charcater is lesbian, Sichel's gritty youth melodrama is so rich in ideas amd so roght in its texture that it goes beyond a coming-out ot even a lesbian-themed story.
