Leave your thoughts about The Scribbler.
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanGloriously bonkers! The Scribbler is fearless in its willingness to go right over the edge, which makes it a treat for fans of science-fiction madness. |
| Epoch TimesJoe BendelThe Scribbler incorporates elements from several genres (science fiction, horror, dark fantasy) and generates some clever disbelief-suspending psychological double-talk. |
| Assignment XAbbie BernsteinThe Scribbler doesn't live up to its premise, but it still has some good scenes and provides food for thought. |
| Paste MagazineMark RabinowitzThe Scribbler is overwrought, absurd, occasionally exploitative, completely lacking in subplot, takes a good 20-25 minutes to really get going and has acting that varies from excellent to, well, less-than-excellent. It’s also hugely fun! |
| The Robot's VoiceLuke Y. ThompsonJohn Suits creates a brightly colored dystopia that mirrors the palette of superhero comics while the sets themselves resemble the grimy imagery of industrial music videos. |
| We Got This CoveredMatt DonatoWhile The Scribbler isn't exactly in contention with the best that the comic book genre has to offer, Katie Cassidy utilizes the numerous voices in her head to create a unique hero for a bit of stylized freshness. |
| Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinDirector John Suits seems more concerned with plying eyeballs with creepy atmospherics, showy visual effects and sexy interludes than with propulsive pacing or roiling tension. |
| Mark Leeper's ReviewsMark R. LeeperThe film exudes a grunge look and a grunge feel while it shifts gears and genres. |
| McClatchy-Tribune News ServiceRoger MooreScribbler is just daring and interesting enough that you can see why a fairly accomplished cast — from Cassidy to Dushku, Gershon to Campbell — was drawn to it, even if the execution underwhelms. |
| RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoThe Scribbler never clicks into the escapist mind f**k it really needed to be to work. It can't maintain its style and never finds its substance. |
