4/5
With fantastic performances and a heartbreaking story to boot, this movie is not for the faint-hearted. Go to Full Review
Jennifer Green Common Sense Media 06/12/2024
This Swedish drama combines moving turns from its teen stars with a nuanced script built around moments and emotions rather than major events or dialogues. Go to Full Review
John Serba Decider 06/03/2024
Maxime’s performance is a boon for A Part of You, helping it avoid enough of the cliche-pitfalls of weepies and coming-of-age dramas to warrant a watch. Go to Full Review
Jason Flatt But Why Tho? 06/02/2024
A Part of You is a powerful depiction of a teenager coping with sudden and horrific loss. But the movie itself is drawn out and disinteresting, let alone often quite frustrating. Go to Full Review

8/10
A Part of You is touching and effective without ever veering into emotionally manipulative or exploitative territory, which is not an easy feat when you’re dealing with this subject matter, especially in this genre. Go to Full Review

Daisy M @RT64457429 04/04/2025 One of my favourite movies of all time. The scene with stockholmsvy is absolute perfection and way the movie manages to be so deep and meaningful without having massive amounts of dialogue or action is perfection. Would recommend to watch to nearly anyone. See more Dana V @RT84757657 07/01/2024 Sorry Sigge, I was really rooting for you, but this is too much of a cliché, overdramatized, overly melancholic and trying too hard to be heartbreaking. Sorry, this is not a good film. See more Thomas v @RT81869564 06/24/2024 Ambitious attempt, but boring: "A Part of You" aims at being a character-driven film that delves into the complexities of grief and adolescence. It follows Agnes, a 17-year-old girl portrayed by Felicia Maxime. The narrative unfolds slowly, as Agnes navigates the tumultuous emotions following the death of her popular older sister, Julia. The film's weakness lies in its inability to capture the individuality of grief. It presents a teenage portrait that is intense but unrelatable. The film is drawn out. Its slow build-up is intentional, mirroring the process of coming to terms with grief, but boring nevertheless. The movie does however, not shy away from difficult topics; a teenager coping with sudden and horrific loss. See more Alexa Y. T @RT25305750 06/19/2024 A heart-shattering drama about young grief and finding oneself after incomprehensible loss depicted through masterful acting performances. A Part of You takes the viewer through the emotional intricacies of grief at a young age, when coming to terms with reality implies losing and finding (or reshaping) oneself. We get to follow the characters through this complex, confusing and transformative process in a way that feels however rather healing than anguishing. While the entire cast delivers strong performances, the main cast definitely stands out as masters of their craft. The protagonist does justice to the harrowing topic as she carries the heaviness of the introspective plot brilliantly. A beautiful and therapeutic experience I cannot but wholeheartedly recommend. See more Sara B @RT39225785 06/19/2024 An important movie about how grief can affect people in different ways. Excellent performances by all main actors and especially Felicia Maxime who portrayed her character’s emotions in a beautiful way. See more Samantha P @RT98631510 06/11/2024 Such an expected script, you could tell what was going to happen in the very first 15 minutes. And no, the ride to that expected ending was not enjoyable. The acting was sometimes floppy, we definitely need to get away from the mentality that screaming and crying equals good acting. See more Read all reviews
