Reviews
Despite its earnest attempts at capturing the essence of young romance in the sixties, 'The First Time' falls short in delivering a cohesive and engaging narrative. Critics noted the film's dated portrayal of gender dynamics and its reliance on clichรฉs, which hindered the overall impact of the story. The pacing was also criticized for being inconsistent, leaving viewers wanting more depth and character development. While Jacqueline Bisset's performance was praised for its vulnerability, the lackluster script and direction failed to elevate the film to its full potential. On platforms like IMDb, 'The First Time' received a lukewarm rating of 4.9/10, indicating a mixed reception among audiences.
