      Reception


      Writing in Variety David Stratton says "Result is a passionate, intriguing series of character studies that should find a theatrical niche in Oz, and will have no difficulty obtaining slots on TV stations elsewhere." Matthew Gilbert of the Boston Globe says The results are fascinating. Armstrong consistently finds drama and heroism in the unremarkable lives of the three original women, as they've learned lessons about family and society the hard way." In the Age Barbara Creed reviews it positively saying "Engaging and accessible, Not Fourteen Again is one of the best Australian documentaries in years." Sandra Hall in the Sydney Morning Herald says "Perhaps the greatest strength of Not Fourteen Again is its success in giving due weight and importance to the so-called ordinary rituals of family life."
