Critics Consensus

Animated with infectious energy and vibrant colors, KPop Demon Hunters is jaunty family entertainment with a terrific soundtrack to boot.

Wilson Chapman

IndieWire

In the hands of directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, it’s a endearing, beautifully animated crowdpleaser, with a dorkily sincere love for the pop culture phenomena it embeds itself in.

Rated: B

Bloody Disgusting

It’s easy to see why KPop Demon Hunters is fast becoming a global sensation; it’s catchy as hell. It’s nearly impossible not to get swept up in its infectious rhythm.

Movie Mom

“KPop Demon Hunters” is an unexpectedly entertaining mash-up of two seemingly unrelated genres. It works because it is colorful, funny, imaginative, and above all heartfelt and sincere.

Rated: B+

Me gusta el cine

An immensely entertaining animated film that makes excellent use of complex characters, catchy K-pop songs, and stylised, colourful, and well-paced animation to deliver a somewhat predictable yet moving story. [Full review in Spanish].

Rated: 4/5

Boston Hassle

It’s nice to watch an animated film with exactly zero white speaking roles, with deftly designed Korean characters who don’t look tossed off for diversity points.
