Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret.

Kelly Fremon Craig fulfills the promise of her endearingly tough debut, The Edge of Seventeen, with a perfectly realized adaptation of Judy Blume's kid-lit classic.

It's so innocent. It's really sweet.

This film knows what it's doing vis-à-vis teen movies as well as the sacred text [of the book].

A warm, emotionally agile adaptation of Judy Blume’s much-loved 1970 novel.

It’s nimbly directed by Kelly Fremon Craig, with an occasionally heavy hand of wholesomeness. But Fortson saves the day...

Framed in a Polaroid-style Seventies haze, the mood is Classic Coke ad meets the Wonder Years, a sugary concoction that goes down perfectly.

The film’s theology is muddled, to be sure, but it’s refreshing to see a child’s pursuit of God occupy such a central role in a mainstream movie.

The best dose of a coming-of-age story in 2023. [Full review in Spanish]

Margaret’s life lessons – awkward as they may be – are just as integral to modern audiences and Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret boldly addresses them with heart, intelligence and care.

A small treat that's totally worth it. [Full review in Spanish]
