When a young girl's sketchbook falls into a strange pond, her drawings come to life--unpredictable, chaotic, and dangerously real. As the town unravels, she and her brother must track down the creatures before they leave permanent damage. Their father, racing to find them through the fallout, must navigate a town in crisis to reunite his family and stop the disaster they never meant to unleash.

Ben Kenigsberg

New York Times

While the children are permitted a measure of psychology, the older characters, especially Amber and Jack’s mopey, klutzy father (overplayed by Tony Hale), are treated as earnest mouthpieces for the story’s morals.

Austin Chronicle

Worley is just as invested in the emotional nuance of the story, which meets each of its grieving characters at their own speed and shows them a lot of grace.

Rated: 3.5/5

In the end, Sketch succeeds not just as a clever genre mash-up but as a heartfelt story about processing loss and finding healthy outlets for overwhelming feelings.

Bring your whole family, but most importantly, take the kids to go see Sketch and let them be inspired and moved and intrigued by it. Not only is it tons of fun – it's the kind of movie that might actually make a real difference in someone's life.

Rated: 8/10

“Sketch” is a refreshing and imaginative exploration of family, grief, and how art can serve as a coping mechanism. It offers a family-friendly take on a heavy subject matter.

Sweet and fun if not a tad bit too Speilbergian corny at times. But that will likely be the appeal for this lovely, touching family film with beautiful fx. I was choking back the tears on a few occasions too and that's always a plus.
