Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
In accounting for Almodovar's identity as an artist and a man, Bad Education comes together like a bold and far-reaching summation of his career to date.

It still exerts an uncanny power: Like the best of Almodovar's work, it throws you a first-love sucker punch that will stagger your heart, mind, and soul.

rotten:
Simple melodrama, a not-that-puzzling puzzle of a film noir.

fresh:
Taken at face value, Bad Education is about molestation, but from a wider perspective, it's about love, loss of innocence and the desperate quest for redemption.

fresh:
Even though Bad Education ultimately seems to escape the director's control, there is no small amount of enjoyment in getting lost in its sexual-philosophical house of mirrors.
