Reviews
|
The A.V. Club -
Toys In The Attic is its own dark creation, filled with imagery reminiscent of Tim Burton in his prime as well as the odd Cold War metaphor.
|
|
Slant Magazine -
Jirí Barta's film is a disturbing through-the-looking-glass reflection of traditional fairy tales.
|
|
New York Post -
The movie is passionately retro, but Barta shows his methods can create a world every bit as engrossing as the latest CGI.
|
|
The New York Times -
The movie should be manna for anyone who likes animated fantasias without wisecracks, commercials and overwrought warbling about self-actualization, meaning that it's suitable for those who will grow up either to be the next Tim Burton or simply to enjoy his movies.
|
|
Los Angeles Times -
The narrative, though, is mere scaffolding for Barta's richly realized world, a kind of hand-hewn 3-D cinema that's testament to the limitlessness of imagination.
