Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
It's a Kids for a new generation of the too-young -to-be-this -messed up.
Although it borders on exploitation in several places, Thirteen packs an emotional wallop.
It's a pretentious piece of Valley Girl vileness masquerading as social commentary.
A raw, disturbing look at a world adults would much rather not know about.
