      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Its efforts to earn laughs can be as ungainly as its title, but for viewers in tune with its absurdist humor, The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared offers much to recommend.

      Loren King Boston Globe It's never explained what Allan's mental state is, other than lovable geriatric rascal-itis, an irritating trope that hardly constitutes a certifiable condition. Rated: 2/4 Jun 25, 2015 Full Review Tom Long Detroit News "The 100-Year-Old-Man" is wonderfully inventive, silly fun. Rated: B+ Jun 12, 2015 Full Review Josh Kupecki Austin Chronicle The 100-Year-Old Man... still entertains for the majority of its running time, but it feels like two separate movies, a dual shaggy dog story stitched together like Frankenstein's monster, never breaking free of its quirky literary origins. Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 4, 2015 Full Review Michael J. Casey Michael J. Cinema Offers much in the way laughs, little in the way of insight, and is all the better for it. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 23, 2021 Full Review Katie Smith-Wong Flick Feast The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared is a very long title for such a crazy story. The humour is hit-and-miss, so it may only appeal to fans of the original book. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 20, 2019 Full Review Mattie Lucas From the Front Row An irresistible and endearing adventure that is pure escapism, a rare type of cinema magic that is as transporting as it is captivating. Rated: 3.5/4 Aug 7, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
