Reaction: The trio of director Jean-Marc Vallee, writer Mo Buck and star Brie Larson is now two-for-two with their tragic dramas. We could never imagine such a downer of a story would be such a successful film for us. We, as well as everyone else, will eagerly await what this trio has in store for us in the future.


"The Child Martyr is often hard to watch and isn't particularly enjoyable. While Larson was great in Maria, her performance here is one very cruel note." - Jeff Stockton, Deseret News



"After a solid, but not often talked about performance in The Last of Us, Mackenzie Foy is the real standout among the cast here. She's both sympathetic and strong in her portrayal of a difficult role that could simply be that of a helpless victim." - Lisa Winger, Newsday



"Jean-Marc Vallee once again shows that he is great at handling actors. The child actors here are all very strong, and stand out more than adult stars Brie Larson, Sam Rockwell and Anthony Hopkins." - Eli McCown, NJ.com
