Reviews

The Playlist - Rodrigo Perez
Flower is hilarious one moment, tender the next and takes some surprising turns. And it certainly doesn’t hurt to have a dynamic lead who steadily navigates the twists with an emotional authenticity that keeps the movie on its bumpy track.
80
The New York Times - Jeannette Catsoulis
Cruelly amoral and only marginally credible, Flower is nevertheless wildly entertaining and at times even touching.
75
The Film Stage - Unnamed
Even with the ways it handles some dicey thematic material, Flower is an engaging ride that largely serves as a vehicle for the excellent Deutch, and further shines the spotlight on telling stories about empathetic young women.
70
Village Voice - April Wolfe
Flower is messy and imperfect and above all else a star-making role for Deutch, who carries this film from funny to tragic and back again.
67
IndieWire - David Ehrlich
At times, [Deutch's] performance is perhaps even too strong for the film that’s cobbled together around it, as the actress so convincingly indicates at Erica’s vibrant and complex inner life that she embarrasses the script’s feeble attempts to diagnose and solve her character.
