Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Because Ozon doesn't develop his characters once Ricky shows his true nature, the movie's slightly overcooked working-class realism quickly morphs into a grotesque story of a mutant baby. The film's two halves feel almost mutually exclusive.
Rotten: What Ricky lacks is a more thorough, consistent examination of maternal bonds.
Fresh: While there may be some sensational elements about this tale from Francois Ozon, it is essentially an engrossing love story with a twist
Fresh: It's not a total success in delivering heartfelt movie satisfaction, but Ozon makes the film with absolute confidence
