- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Steers refreshingly clear of the usual cliches. Character takes the wheel and dictates the action, not the other way around."
-
"The look and feel of the film is entirely beguiling (...) Evokes a sense of timelessness"
-
"One of the most inventive, funny and ultimately tragic coming-of-age movies in years."
-
It's all way too heavy-handed, though nicely acted by Hirsch, Culkin, and, especially, Jena Malone
-
"Peter Care crafts something darkly funny and touching from a coming-of-age fable that might have drifted into formula without deeply felt performances from Culkin and Hirsch and dazzling animation from Todd McFarlane"
-
"A touching but odd mix of live action and animation"
