"Genius. One of the best directorial debuts ever. Jake Gyllenhaal is superb as the troubled teenager plagued by visions of the end of the world. Awesome."
"Brilliant, clever and great acting. An estranged family re-unite over their father's (Gene Hackman) 'impending death'. An amazing film by all standards."
"Sofia Coppola's first and best film. 4 boys become obsessed with the daughters of a devout family next door. Sexy, Creepy, poignant and it has Kirsten Dunst in a bikini."
