- 83The Film StageJared MobarakThe Film StageJared MobarakWriter/director Alexandra-Therese Keining‘s adaptation of Jessica Schiefuer‘s 2011 August Prize-winning (Sweden) young adult novel Pojkarna (translated as The Boys but changed to Girls Lost for international release) is deliciously dark and profoundly vital.

- 60Total FilmJosh WinningTotal FilmJosh WinningInteresting, but others have explored similar themes far more effectively.
- 50We Got This CoveredDavid JamesWe Got This CoveredDavid JamesGirls Lost fills the magical realism, gender dysphoria, Swedish indie teen drama-shaped hole in your life. It's just a damn shame it all falls apart in the final act.
