Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
It is not a message picture, never lectures, contains partial nudity but avoids explicit images and grows into a poignant human drama.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
5 Sep 2008
fresh:
XXY is the first film to address intersex identity with graceful compassion, and [director] Puenzo tells Alex's story with simple, honest and forthright integrity.
– Jeff Shannon,
Seattle Times,
26 Sep 2008
fresh:
Trim and briskly paced, XXY is sometimes difficult to watch, but Puenzo lets the actors explore a full range of emotions.
– Michael Phillips,
Chicago Tribune,
18 Oct 2008
fresh:
The movie's images are frequently startling, its performances sharply observed and quirky, and its take on its subject matter undeniably provocative.
