The film’s positive outlook has value, but when the writer, Ximena Garcia Lecuona, tries to add a bit of conflict, the results are hopelessly flimsy.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 8, 2022

As far as rom-coms go, Anything's Possible is pretty standard.

| Jul 29, 2022

Buoyed by its leads’ fizzing chemistry and infectious spirit, Billy Porter’s directorial debut may be flawed, but its feel-good vibes and charm make it prime for comfort viewing.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 24, 2022

The result, finally, is kind of this, kind of that, and at its best, kind of good.

| Jul 22, 2022

Porter’s delightful debut is perhaps most groundbreaking exactly because it grants a black, high-school-aged trans girl—a character we rarely see in cinema, if at all—a recognizable youthful tale not defined by bigoted adversity.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 22, 2022

Porter and his ingratiating actors do all they can to humanize the material. The movie works because a lot of that material is engaging and genuinely humane to begin with.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 22, 2022

Anything’s Possible is another needed step in the right direction – a just-fine high school romantic comedy about an unapologetic, bold trans teenager on a major streaming platform.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 22, 2022

With “Anything’s Possible,” an assured and intelligent debut, Porter expands the romantic comedy umbrella with gentle grace.

| Jul 22, 2022

If "Anything's Possible" unfolds in an impossibly heightened version of reality, the heart of the story is rooted in relatable human emotions...

| Original Score: B- | Jul 21, 2022

The longer it goes, the better it gets. The director is actor Billy Porter, on debut, and he does a good job deepening the waters, while keeping the surface light.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 21, 2022

Contributing in making this so warm-hearted and upbeat are a peppy soundtrack, snappy dialogue and colorful characters and their sun-bursting fashions. “Anything’s Possible” is a perfect little pick me up.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 21, 2022

[A] pleasant and diverting feature film...

| Jul 21, 2022

Anything’s Possible is indeed revolutionary, but the revolution is in how typical its story is.

| Original Score: 8.9/10 | Jul 20, 2022

A familiar feel-good story told through an unseen perspective, “Anything’s Possible” is an overdue inclusion of trans youth in the celebratory innocence of the coming-of-age genre.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 20, 2022

A delightful expansion of the rom-com genre.

| Jul 19, 2022

'Anything’s Possible' makes an impassioned call for empathy and understanding to which any viewer can relate, ultimately highlighting the universal truth that love is ultimately what allows us to be our best selves, trans or not.

| Original Score: B | Jul 18, 2022

“Anything’s Possible” is a welcome unique entry into the high-school romance genre, with representation playing an important part. It’s not as deep or as deeply felt as it might have been, but at least it’s a start.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 18, 2022

If only “Anything’s Possible” had been content to depict this relationship in all its newness onscreen without burdening these two appealing characters with a pile-on of issues more suited to a newspaper editorial than a narrative feature.

| Jul 15, 2022

With edgy, alarmingly hard stuff like “Euphoria” at the opposite extreme, it’s nice to find a teen movie that’s more preoccupied with matters of gender than sex.
