As French-language films about efforts to rehabilitate violent yet hunky blonde juvenile delinquents go, Emmanuelle Bercot's muddled Standing Tall is at least less irritating and fetishistic than Xavier Dolan's Mommy.

Harrowing and hopeful but always humane, with no easy solutions.

A smartly written, evenly wrought drama ...

Rating: 1/4 --
It's a preening piece of work, aiming to flatter and please, while masquerading as something hard-hitting and daring. And because of all that, it's a bore.

Standing Tall makes up for its use of clichés by way of strong direction, well honed performances, and a sense of dramatic depth.

I didn't think I was absorbed in the story until I was choking back tears at the end.

As a shaper of stories, Bercot is not yet as assured as those directors. But she knows how to elicit authentic performances, whether from veterans like Deneuve or a first-timer like Paradot. His Malony may not be likable, but he's altogether believable.

Product Description:
A group of concerned adults, including a juvenile-court judge (Catherine Deneuve) and a youth counselor (Benoît Magimel), try to help a deeply troubled teen (Rod Paradot) come to grips with his traumatic past and the demands of his future as he navigates the correctional system and the pain of adolescence. Emmanuelle Bercot directed this drama, which opened the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
