Wendy Ide Screen International Distinctive in its deceptively abrasive tone and in the wildly out-there swerves of its story. It does suffer slightly from pacing issues and an unwieldy tonal shift in the third act. Jun 12, 2024 Full Review Olivia Popp Cineuropa Regardless, the animation here stands up to scrutiny, and the filmmakers bring a charming and warm, handmade quality to the film.
