Soulless, joyless and depressingly graceless, Alien Girl plays like an early Guy Ritchie knockoff without the jokes or Cockney accents.

Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
Rotten

In his feature debut, Bormatov doesn't much bother with things like character development, relying instead on raw brutality, profanity and sex.

V.A. Musetto, New York Post
Rotten

From its title, "Alien Girl" seems to promise some kind of playful intergalactic adventure. That, it is not.

Mark Olsen, Los Angeles Times
Rotten

Is it too much to ask for a little character development and a touch of humor between the infrequent set pieces?

David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter
Rotten

Alien Girl delivers wearisome brutality but little finesse.
