5/10
For the good and the bad, Bambi: The Reckoning is precisely what I expected it would be and I found myself invested in what was happening. Go to Full Review
Abby Monteil The Daily Beast Aug 1
The outlandish premise alone makes Bambi: The Reckoning the perfect thing to throw on while under some kind of influence in a friend’s basement. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Bambi: The Reckoning is an audaciously bloody but distractingly humorless creature feature. Go to Full Review
Cris Kennedy Inner East Review Jul 29
3/5
The film's technical team is a small crew, the end credits were mercifully short, but they achieve good believable work with their CGI, keeping their scenes dark, only revealing the horror creatures when they need to. Go to Full Review

3/5
Bleak, bloody, and effective eco-horror. This grizzly homage to the cartoon trauma of Bambi's past should satisfy those who want to enjoy a bloody-fun bastardization of their youth and an exploitation of their childhood traumas. Go to Full Review

Vera B Oct 29 I thought this was a pretty good film. It was more hard than I expected an interesting twist on the original Bambi a fun movie to watch. See more Gandalf G Sep 15 Mutant Bambi goes on a rampage. Thumper was there too. Flower was not and I’m disappointed. See more Juandi Aug 19 This was way better than I anticipated. Of course it has its cheesy flaws but it’s mostly entertaining. It’s an upgraded version of a straight-to-dvd movie. See more Jason B Aug 10 Decent horror flick. Premise makes it sound corny, and it definitely has black comedy vibes, but it’s worth a watch. See more Logan Aug 1 I came in expecting a kind of jokey movie on a date, but it was genuinely so boring and the ending was so mediocre, we both regretted coming and would rather have done something else. At least it wasn't too long though. See more sil Jul 31 Bambi's revenge, fun horror movie See more Read all reviews
