Variety

Katie Cassidy's intrepid lead performance can't overcome the limitations of a low-budget comicbook adaptation.

It's dull when one wants it to be ludicrous, and serves as a reminder of how hard it is to bring comic books to celluloid life on a limited budget.

Rated: 1.5/4

Someone should have scribbled a better script for "The Scribbler."

The Scribbler doesn't live up to its premise, but it still has some good scenes and provides food for thought.

Rated: B-

Epoch Times

The Scribbler incorporates elements from several genres (science fiction, horror, dark fantasy) and generates some clever disbelief-suspending psychological double-talk.

Rated: 4/5

A rare & enjoyable film that doesn't rely on cgi to keep you gripped. The direction is attention grabbing with witty content coupled by a great cast that truly brings something unique to the screen.

Find out where M-night Shamalon stole his idea for Split from. This is an entertaining movie... if you can stand a purposefully illogical story.

A visually impressive and engaging graphic novel film. Perhaps a little contrived in parts, but for a movie without a hollywood budget, I was quite impressed.

I think this movie brings something different to the superhero topic. Funny and with no pretension it's a good call to watch on one of those nights of popcorns under the blanket
