Reviews

Los Angeles Times - Michael Rechtshaffen
Director Seet’s gorgeously filmed production proves to resonate as much today as it did 40-plus years ago.

The Hollywood Reporter - Frank Scheck
Even those unfamiliar with the tale will find it charming and moving, and, as is so often the case with Australian films, the scenery can't be beat.
70
Variety - Richard Kuipers
This version of Storm Boy, directed by excellent Aussie small-screen helmer Shawn Seet, has the emotional heft and visual splendor to win the hearts of domestic and international family audiences.
70
Arizona Republic - Bill Goodykoontz
Director Shawn Seet’s film is surprisingly sweet and moving.
63
Movie Nation - Roger Moore
It’s not a thrill-a-minute piece of children’s entertainment, but winning performances by young Finn Little, by Oscar winner Geoffrey Rush as the adult “boy,” and by Trevor Jamieson and Morgana Davies, lift it.
