Empire - Kim Newman
The City Of Lost Children is as great a film as you thought "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" was when you were five years old.

ReelViews - James Berardinelli
For those who enjoy the offbeat, The City of Lost Children is worth taking the time and effort to find.

TV Guide Magazine - Unnamed
You may end up wishing for a little less show and a lot more substance.

Austin Chronicle - Unnamed
With its fine performances, gorgeous sets, incredible special effects, imaginative story line, beautiful score (by frequent David Lynch collaborator Angelo Badalamenti), and knockout cinematography, The City of Lost Children is very much worth seeing.

Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
I am not one of you. But I have enough of you in me to pass along the word. Far out.
