Garçon stupide movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Peter Debruge, Miami Herald: Candor elevates the material from simply being a series of X-rated exploits to a far more insightful story about how the path to manhood is paved with selfish mistakes, some far more regrettable than others. Read more
Jessica Reaves, Chicago Tribune: Brooding, beautiful and ultimately redemptive story of sex, more sex and -- just maybe -- love. Read more
John Hartl, Seattle Times: It's the kind of discomforting movie that seems designed to remind you of wrong-headed or foolish moments in your own past. On that level, it may succeed only too well. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: Garcon Stupide is the rare piece of European sexual realism centered completely on a boy's awakening. Young women have dominated the genre in the last 10 years, especially in France. So the film is a welcome, though inferior changeup. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: Loic's journey is rich in incident and detail, and Garcon Stupide retains its dynamic momentum throughout. Read more
Joey Guerra, Houston Chronicle: Tender moments of grace and a mutual respect between the filmmaker and his subject shine through. Read more
John Monaghan, Detroit Free Press: Unfortunately, just when you think Garcon Stupide is going somewhere, Baier screws it up with a melodramatic climax and a political message. Read more
Mario Tarradell, Dallas Morning News: Understanding the ins and outs of a young, detached psyche requires careful cinematic dialogue and introspection, qualities Mr. Baier can't muster in his feature debut. Read more
Ernest Hardy, L.A. Weekly: A wise and moving coming-of-age tale. Read more
Jan Stuart, Newsday: Garcon Stupide is a seamless blending of fiction with the biographical truths of its riveting non-professional star, Pierre Chatagny, who endows Loic with the incomparable gift of life in the process of being lived. Read more
Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times: Garcon Stupide is an intriguing examination of alienation and dysfunction, tonally haunting rather than melodramatic. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: It's voyeuristic and kinky and maybe a little judgmental. Read more
David Wiegand, San Francisco Chronicle: Loic (Pierre Chatagny) is not only stupid, he's dull and uninteresting, as well as uninterested in the world around him. Read more
David Ng, Village Voice: A better-late-than-never coming-of-age tale that is by turns earnest and corny, though never stupide. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: Garcon Stupide never quite convinces us that it has a greater moral agenda beyond its graphic material. Read more
