Metacritic reviews

This is a movie for those who sometimes, in the stillness of the sleepless night, are so filled with hope and longing that they feel like -- well, like uttering wild goat cries to the moon. You know who you are.

Lost and Delirious doesn't need metaphors for the power of strength and healing. All the passion and pain it needs glows ferociously in the eyes of its young women.

Pool captures the crazed urgency of first love -- the feeling of a passion so fierce that even a disapproving society can't crush it.

Evokes the intimacies of teenage girls with unusual delicacy, and Perabo's performance is a geyser of emotion.

Sophisticated in that European way and predictable in that Hollywood way.

Piper Perabo is a revelation -- and Barton is maturing into a sensitive, subtle performer with a marvelously expressive face.

Perabo gives a fairly impressive and flashy performance, even when the script descends into melodrama.

The movie is beautiful to look at (lensed by Pierre Gill) as are the girls, but it takes its clunky message so seriously that it often verges on silliness.

Will divide audiences between those whose hearts have been tugged into going along with the picture way past common sense and those who find it impossible to accept the film's credibility-defying developments.

It has a frenetic, unsettled edginess that chafes against its serene, woodsy, upscale private school setting.
