Mary and Max Ratings & Reviews
Subculture Entertainment
David Griffiths
Films as brilliant as 'Mary And Max' don't come along very often. If I had to grade it out of ten I would give it one hundred.
Deep Focus Review
Brian Eggert
The ugly duckling characters share thoughts of anxiety, addiction, depression, and feelings of severe displacement within the world. This is dark and very heavy, but very Harold and Maude stuff.
Oregonian
Jamie S. Rich
"Mary and Max" dares to be equally funny and sad, making it as bittersweet as Max's favorite chocolate.
Film School Rejects
Neil Miller
Unapologetically bleak and delivered with dashes of sweetness and sharp wit, Mary and Max deserves notice for being such an unexpected change of pace.
Common Sense Media
Sandie Angulo Chen
Animated indie explores unusual friendship, heavy themes.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Jeffrey Chen
While Mary and Max gets a lot of things right, I think it gets the dynamics of friendship more right than everything else.
Cinematical
Erik Davis
Although a tad sappy and heavy-handed at times, Mary and Max fidgets and wiggles its way into our good spirits by the time it reaches its endearing conclusion.
Movie Retriever
Brian Tallerico
The most surprisingly moving film of the year, an experience that literally knocked me back as it brought tears to my eyes.

Matt Pais
I don't know how anyone wouldn't love this splendid, beautiful, hilarious and heartbreaking film.

I'd be a sucker for most movies where a strategic slick of rooster s*** plays a decisive role in enabling an emotional communion, or where a young girl thinks to ask, "If a taxi goes backwards, does the driver owe you money?"

Cole Smithey
"Mary and Max" is a highly inventive claymation tragicomedy told from a very personal perspective. It's not intended to be everyone's cup of tea.

Mark R. Leeper
From opposite ends of the world the two can say anything to each other, and the clay animation lets us see what their minds' eyes are seeing. The story is wise and funny in ways it could not be in live action.
eFilmCritic.com
Erik Childress
Mary and Max has the look of a kids picture but is another chapter in the growing evolution of animation for grown-ups.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Remarkable and poignant...
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
Exquisite attention to detail that creates not only a complex portrait of each of the main characters but also a vivid sense of place.
EricDSnider.com
Eric D. Snider
Of all the Australian claymation oddball dramedies to come out in 2009, this is almost certainly the best.
Boxoffice Magazine
Cathleen Roundtree
Mary and Max answers affirmatively, and quite genuinely, the question: Is there someone for everyone?
Variety
Justin Chang
Clearly a labor of love, but one destined perhaps to be loved by a very select few.
Cinema Autopsy
Thomas Caldwell
Both sad and funny, it's a moving film that will more than likely result in audiences having to fight back tears throughout the final credits.
