Goodbye First Love Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
"Goodbye First Love" is fascinating.
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
Hansen-Lve films with an eye toward discovering and rediscovering these characters in pure moments of simple, poignant humanity - wading in a river, clambering over rocks.
Sin Magazine
Austin Kennedy
I can respect the director for the effort, but it felt too much like a self important student film.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
"Goodbye First Love" is like a postcard from a lost Eden, a painfully pure oasis where we're not allowed to linger.
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
Writer-director, Mia Hansen-Lve, whose third feature this is, has addressed her subject with complete emotional confidence.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
This is an easy movie to spoil. It's rather plotless. But things happen in precisely the way that life happens.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
[A] acute drama of young romance and passionate sex, as well as what you learn when you lose both.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Is it "annoying," "talky' and "complacent," or "beautiful and deep"?
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
"Goodbye First Love" showcases two young women with bright futures.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
This is a rigorously crafted film steeped in the French tradition, but it's meant to be a sensual and emotional experience, not a verbal or analytical one.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
When we watch Hansen-Lve's films, we're not only experiencing a life unfolding before us, we're also realizing what a great privilege it is to be able to do that.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
It examines, with compassion and clarity, a young woman's discovery of passion and also of the pain, disappointment and partial wisdom that follow.
NPR
Scott Tobias
Goodbye First Love hangs a wealth of small observational moments on a structure so firm that a curtain could drop between acts.
Village Voice
Karina Longworth
Goodbye First Love loosely fictionalizes lived experience in order to capture the ineffable-in this case, emotional maturation or, as Sullivan phrases it, "becom[ing] a real person."
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
There's nothing like a film about wayward passions to remind you how differently people feel things.
The Atlantic
Jon Frosch
The film is seriously tarnished by three blandly conceived main characters and some sulky, wooden acting.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
Mistakes pretty-kid pouting, long silences, and heavy-handed environment-reflects-character symbolism for actual insight.
AV Club
Noel Murray
A movie that's poignant, bittersweet, and true.
Variety
Boyd van Hoeij
The deeply satisfying third feature of Gallic scribe-helmer Mia Hansen-Love.
The Hollywood Reporter
Jordan Mintzer
Arthouse audiences could drink this down like a glass of Chardonnay.
