Critics Consensus

A thoughtful look at the intricacies of girlhood in the modern age, Cuties is a coming-of-age film that confronts its themes with poignancy and nuance.

Doucouré made this from a very personal place. The keenest parts explore the push/pull of her Muslim upbringing.

We need more feminist stories like Cuties that illuminate the constraints girls and women face and help us chart a path to full gender equality.

In both horrific scenes and adorable ones, what remains consistent is Doucouré's honesty.

Sometimes uncomfortable and others too radical, Cuties is an eye-opener with an inspired ending, despite the troublesome scenes we witnessed seconds earlier.

Sometimes I have the feeling that sobriety is absent and the complaint material remains in a repetitive field that only adds questions insignificantly. [Full review in Spanish]

This movie is vile the way it sexualizes children. I wish I could give it zero stars.

The cuties is probably one of the most vile softcore child-p*rn movie I've ever seen. The movie wants to convey the message of abuse which is really good, but the way the movie tried to convey the message is just vile and just really bad. The concert scenes are just softcore child-p*rn the camera zooms in to actress' in a very obscure way and it's... it's just bad. Only p*dos will love this movie, I would love to give this movie a 0 star but I can't. Definitely never watch this movie.

I know the point of the film is to make a critic, but the execution is simply sickening and contradicts its own message by exposing underage actresses
