Christy Lemire FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) Lupita Nyong'o is doing fantastic voice work here. The whole cast is great. Nov 3, 2024 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) It’s sentimental stuff, certainly, but the picture’s unexpectedly dark humour outweighs any maudlin tendencies. Rated: 4/5 Oct 30, 2024 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube) It's got lots of lovely life lessons. Oct 22, 2024 Full Review Preston Barta Denton Record-Chronicle Few films have the power to evoke such strong emotions, and 'The Wild Robot' is a treasure trove of valuable life lessons for everyone. Dec 21, 2024 Full Review Jared Mobarak Hey, Have You Seen ...? Add themes on home and family of the nurture rather than nature variety and there's a lot to love about Roz and company's emotional evolutions. It's the blueprint of a civilization born from chaos. Rated: 8/10 Dec 20, 2024 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film The film mines a lot of clichés but manages to do something a little different with them, blending traditional elements of children’s fiction with a distinctly 21st Century sensibility. Rated: 4/5 Dec 20, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/20/24 Full Review Matthew Cotton It was enough to make a grown man cry, and my sister cried at the end too, and that’s OK but I’m glad we both loved it and raided it 10 out of 10 as a surprise such a great movie highly recommendable! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/19/24 Full Review Heather Beautiful storyline and animation. It does the book justice while not following it exactly. Wonderful family film!
