The Virgin Suicides - Arvostelut

...Coppola has created a film more about mood than substance, evoking the girls' sexual awakening with rich hues of yellow, gold and red and stunning visuals (...) complemented perfectly by a dreamily ethereal score by the French band Air.

...the film withholds its meaning and leaves the audience in almost the same sunlit suburban dreaminess in which it began. It looks stranger and more enigmatic than ever.

In an astonishingly assured film debut, Coppola captures the poetry and sweetness of Eugenides' novel without allowing any of the standard rites of passage – first dates, high-school dances – to feel trite.

Lisbon-pigernes skæbne er på alle måder gribende og tragisk, men også lige lovlig teatralsk og voldsom.
