What to Know

Critics Consensus

A semi-autobiographical love letter to teenage angst that's also slyly self-critical, Dìdi is a deeply moving personal statement by writer-director Sean Wang.

Kaitlyn Huamani Associated Press Dìdi’s greatest strength lies in the balance it strikes between moments of levity and gravity, often prompting waves of laughter seconds after evoking tears. Rated: 3.5/4 Jul 24, 2024 Full Review Nick Schager The Daily Beast A superb coming-of-age saga that lives in the intersection of youthful euphoria, despair, insecurity, irresponsibility, and fearlessness. Jul 23, 2024 Full Review Derek Smith Slant Magazine The film speaks unflinchingly to the unique anxieties and frustrations of early teenhood. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 21, 2024 Full Review Murjani Rawls Substream Magazine Nothing is set in stone once you reach ‘DÌDI’s’ conclusion, which is one of its best parts. This is one of many transformative summers for Chris to come. Jul 24, 2024 Full Review David Chen Decoding Everything (Substack) Didi puts you in the mindset of a protagonist who’s struggling to figure out how to make friends and be “normal” and it’s not always as easy as it seems, especially as an Asian-American male. Rated: A- Jul 24, 2024 Full Review Laura Clifford Reeling Reviews “Dìdi,” feels a lot more genuine [than "Nai Nai & Wài Pó"], steeped in the complex issues of an adolescent son of Taiwanese immigrants in an all female household. Rated: B Jul 23, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
