- Samuel Castro @ El Colombiano [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Hay gente que anda por la vida como si la cargara. Y basta pasar algunas páginas del periódico donde usted lee este texto para comprobar que algo de razón tienen en su pesimismo quienes ven siempre el vaso medio vacío.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: A true stop animation tale using no CGI and composed of 7,000 objects and 135,000 stills…wows us from its opening credit pan over a vast heap of stuff including snail poison(!), a bathtub marked ‘Melbourne Film Festival Fund’ and an overflowing ashtray advising ‘sound firm.’
- Kirsten Hawkes @ Parent Previews
- Excerpt: Love it or hate it, this is not a film that will invite indifference. It will definitely prompt discussion and might even trigger a tear or two…
- Wesley Lovell @ Cinema Sight
- Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: The detail to craft is impossible to ignore. Where it stands apart from its ilk, though, is the darkly comic subject matter that pulls zero punches.
- Jacob Oller @ The A.V. Club
- Excerpt: Though crafted with wry care and a captivatingly scuzzy aesthetic, the bittersweet biography is so miserable that the “sweet” ends up as a cloying chaser to old escargot.
- Christopher Reed @ Film Festival Today
- Excerpt: Though the subject matter leans heavily towards the bleak, there is great beauty throughout. Grace’s journey may have an ultimate destination that is somewhat familiar (she learns and grows), but the milestones along the way are unique, fascinating in their wonderfully strange details.
- [New] | Diego Salgado @ Sofilm [Spanish]
- Sebastian Zavala @ Cinencuentro.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: The animation is charming and has its own style, the main character is believable and perfectly acted by Sarah Snook, and overall, what the film delivers is a highly emotional, melancholic and bittersweet experience.
