Chicago Reader Joshua Katzman
While Cazeneuve's story is about gay love, it also charts universal truths about adolescent romance and high school politics with great aplomb.
Read Full Review >Variety Dennis Harvey
Non-formulaic character interactions, a uniformly strong cast and deft handling by vet TV helmer Fabrice Cazaneuve render a refreshing take on youthful coming-out.
Read Full Review >LA Weekly Chuck Wilson
Screenwriter Vincent Molina and director Fabrice Cazaneuve are wonderfully calm about the tumult of teen life.
Read Full Review >Los Angeles Times Kevin Thomas
There's a naturalness to the entire cast, yet there is considerable depth to the portrayals, and the interplay between the characters is exceptionally rich and nuanced.
Read Full Review >The Onion (A.V. Club) Noel Murray
Though its milieu is often ugly and its story fairly soft, You'll Get Over It gets by thanks to its cast. The French film industry has a knack for finding attractive, expressive young actors, and this movie is no exception.
Read Full Review >TV Guide Ken Fox
Screenwriter Vincent Molina takes into account changing attitudes towards homosexuality and the resulting film never feels like the kind of thing we've seen time and again in the '80s and '90s.
Read Full Review >Christian Science Monitor David Sterritt
The story's celebration of honesty is commendable, even if the treatment of homophobia is no deeper than the hero's swimming pool.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Dave Kehr
Well-meaning and hopelessly bland, You'll Get Over It, instantly drops into the tone of didactic realism that rules most television fiction, drawing easy moral lessons from a scrubbed-up simulacrum of everyday, middle-class life.
Read Full Review >Village Voice Dennis Lim
Too breezily, You’ll Get Over It gets over it--the dewy, abrupt optimism of its ending seems wholly unearned.
Read Full Review >New York Post V.A. Musetto
What's Vincent to do? Will he come out of the closet? Will he lead the swim team to victory at the big match? Will he find happiness with Noemie? Does anybody care?

Ted J. gave it a 10:
This is a cool looking, sexy, gay teen flick that only the French seem to know how to make.
Abhijay P. gave it a 4:
All dressed up in nifty looking digital video and sexed-up with nubile French youngsters this is really just a weak ABC Afterschool Special masquerading as an arty foreign flick.
