Ben Sachs Chicago Reader Mar 3, 2020
The movie doesn't hit as hard as it should since Griffiths strikes such a monotonously grim tone and the performances aren't very convincing. Go to Full Review
Moira MacDonald Seattle Times Oct 17, 2018
3.5/4
Its honesty and power makes it feel large; you live among these characters in their weary trailer park, aching for them. Go to Full Review
Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times Oct 15, 2018
Schloss owns "Sadie" in a finely-tuned performance of a girl learning her own power and the consequences of her actions. Go to Full Review

4/5
Sadie, the character, represents a cross-section of Americans on the edge of becoming a cult via blind faith in their country's military. Go to Full Review
Loren King AWFJ.org Apr 4, 2019
As a portrait of adolescent angst, "Sadie" doesn't offer any new insights. Go to Full Review

Anakin M Nov 15, 2018 This movie has one thing going for it, unpredictability. Much of the rest of it makes me want to scream WHY?!? Why does that school counselor keep coming around? Even after he sees the mom with a guy way better looking then he is? Why is Sadie's best friend the most unintelligent, boring and dull human being on the planet? Why does Sadie only utilize her attractiveness twice in the movie and for the dumbest of reasons? Does this movie want me to pull my hair out? See more
George R Nov 9, 2018 This movie is fantastic! A deep, important story told through the eyes of a girl who's seen true hurt. I was immediately wrapped up in these characters collective world. I cared about each one of them and hoped for spinoff movies. I know the days of streaming are upon us, but this might be one I want on the 'ol blue ray shelf. See more
Anakin R Oct 21, 2018 Very enjoyable, slightly disturbing :) Highly recommended!!
Jul 13, 2018 Brilliant, disturbing, poignant and witty. A fresh look through the eyes of a fiercely smart girl at a world off kilter. Incredible acting. See more
Han S Jul 9, 2018 Believable, down to earth acting. I thought about it all the next day. Loved the music. Sophia made your heart ache for so many reasons. See more
Hermione S Jul 8, 2018 Taking unexpected dark and disturbing twists and turns, Sophia Mitri Schloss's Sadie reveal the trailer teen's obsession not just with her absent father, but with her mother's life. See more
