Amoeba Ratings & Reviews

Siddhant Adlakha
Punk rock treasures like Amoeba don't come around very often.
In Review Online
Morris Yang
[A] perceptive feature debut about the quest for girlhood in Singapore... [that] articulates the thorny phenomenon, so central to Amoeba, of a generation of youth grappling with who they are.
The Film Stage
Ankit Jhunjhunwala
Amoeba's setting and exploration provide the primary interest in Tan's debut feature, which deals explicitly with the cosmopolitan identity of Singapore, and what it means to the young people in the city-state.

captures the verve of the teen years beautifully ... a sympathetic, evocative portrait
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
"Girl gang" movies set in parts of the world where girls aren't allowed to be girls can often feel like melodrama or even exploitation, but 'Amoeba' avoids these traps by staying true to its protagonists.
The Movie Buff
Paul Emmanuel Enicola
"Amoeba" is, after all, about growing up in fits and starts, about identities that don't quite align, about wanting more than the world will allow.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
Digressions are a feature, not a bug here and going off-track ends up showing that ultimately "Amoeba" is on the right one.
The Playlist
Christian Gallichio
[The film's] structural waywardness mimics the girls, as Tan lingers on singular scenes and moments sometimes without a sense of cohesion. Of course, it's a hang-out movie, but it also suggests more is at stake for these girls than self-discovery.
Hammer to Nail
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
With "Amoeba," director Siyou Tan makes a powerful debut feature, telling the story of a group of teenage girls in Singapore struggling to develop identities of their own within a deeply conservative system.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
Don't therefore dismiss the film's first two-thirds as a cutely familiar coming-of-age lark. It might play like that to an American like me, but the gravity of [Singapore reimagining its past as a myth] is much direr.
