Come Undone is the coming-of-age romance French-style, with emotions nuanced, effects subtle. But it's also achingly slow, at times bleak and, in the end, frustratingly and regrettably, rather pointless.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
While Come Undone has some explicit material, what makes it a mature and special work is its embrace of the knotty and unfamiliar.
Those who like to explore movies will find plenty to admire.
Although Come Undone deals with serious, difficult subjects ... it handles them kindly and with little angst.
A delicately managed piece that is by turns intimately detailed and elliptical.
