It may be manna for teen girls but any kind of critical eye will find it about as convincingly made as the last St Trinian's movie. It is played, though, with lively abandon.

What begins as tedious teen comedy/drama about a Californian brat turns out to be a surprisingly agreeable popcorn flick.

Mildly entertaining and utterly innocuous...

Despite a shaky start, Wild Child is actually a surprisingly entertaining teen flick, thanks to likeable performances and a script that highlights the importance of friendship. Worth seeing.

The film has an energy and honesty about it: it's lively, funny and smart and the characters are appealing

It's an unoriginal story but one with potential, and the actors who play Poppy's school chums are lively company.

This celebration of mid-Atlantic compromise is one for the youngest and most forgiving of teenage girls.

Bright and silly, with just enough wit and intelligence to make it watchable, this British-American teen comedy doesn't break much new ground, but is pretty entertaining while it lasts.

A slight but tart teen comedy, Child carries some surprising bite, subverting the norm with a fine British cast helping to sell the pixy stick fantasy, buttressed by Roberts's refreshing angry streak.

A project broad-based enough to make tween competitor Angus, Thongs And Perfect Snogging feel arthouse.

Competent if mechanical helming debut by editor Nick Moore.

The screenplay by Lucy Dahl (daughter of Roald) dwells unpleasantly on cruelty and humiliation, and finally Poppy does little more than exchange one form of snobbery for another.
