Reviews
Scrappy and modest though [the] movie may be, it all coheres beautifully, and with a sweetness that never feels faked.Justin Chang, Los Angeles Times
Mostly it's a sweet and sometimes delightful melancholic story of a lonely man saved by imagination and love.Manohla Dargis, New York Times
Mooney and his pals have created a love letter to nostalgia. Don't dismiss this unorthodox ode to cartoons of old --- it's a treasure.Jeanne Kaplan, Kaplan vs. Kaplan
