| The Hollywood ReporterPeter BrunetteThere's really very little to say about this film beyond that it's absolutely brilliant. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertI enjoyed this film so much I'm sorry to report it was finally too much of a muchness. You can only eat so much cake. |
| The New York TimesMike HaleATown Called Panic is an adventure story as fast-paced and exciting as any currently in theaters. |
| Portland OregonianShawn LevyDelirious. Hilarious. Absolutely one-of-a-kind. |
| Boston GlobeTy BurrA proudly Calvinist work - I mean the comic strip character, not the philosopher - that understands the delights of deep play. |
| San Francisco ChronicleWalter AddiegoAimed directly at your inner 8-year-old, and it strikes home. |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoAn animated feature that revels in its low-tech wackiness. |
| EmpireSimon CrookOne of the year's originals - frantic, unpredictable and very, very funny. Remove brain. See loud. |
| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanThis little gem is best saved for those -- both young and old -- who prefer to find surprises under the tree. |
| The A.V. ClubNoel MurrayIt's more clever than funny, but it's very clever. |
