Hunter and Reed are excellent, but it's the scarily talented 15-year-old Wood whose scorching, star-making performance drives Thirteen.

It's a Kids for a new generation of the too-young -to-be-this -messed up.

Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
Fresh

Although it borders on exploitation in several places, Thirteen packs an emotional wallop.

Bill Muller, Arizona Republic
Rotten

It's a pretentious piece of Valley Girl vileness masquerading as social commentary.

Andrew Sarris, New York Observer
Fresh

A raw, disturbing look at a world adults would much rather not know about.
