My Dog Tulip Ratings & Reviews
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
It's an oddity, this film: a wry, wobbly cartoon made expressly for grown-ups, featuring quirky hand-drawn animation and very little dialogue outside the central voiceover.
Playback:stl
Sarah Boslaugh
Many films have been written about the bonds between man and beast but few are as wise, as witty, or as unflinchingly founded in observation as My Dog Tulip.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
The scratchy animation, reminiscent of Jules Feiffer's beatnik-era doodles, is a homey complement to Plummer's autumnal narration.
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
A beautifully illustrated love letter to dogs and the people who own them...
Antagony & Ecstasy
Tim Brayton
This is pleasant, as far as it goes, though awfully sedative.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
A marvelous animated feature, full of quiet joy, honest sorrow, wisdom and a wealth of clinical detail both excremental and reproductive, all rendered in a charming style approximating the dog drawings of James Thurber.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
It is told from and by an adult sensibility that understands loneliness, gratitude and the intense curiosity we feel for other lives, man and beast.
Orlando Weekly
Justin Strout
It's beautiful, affectionate and elegant.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Chris Hewitt
Stay through the tender closing credits, which acknowledge all of the dogs that contributed barks to the film's soundtrack.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
It's hard not to feel a certain affection for a tale that is so unapologetic about just that: affection.
Movieline
Stephanie Zacharek
Paul and Sandra Fierlinger's My Dog Tulip is a double rarity: An adaptation that wholly and faithfully captures the spirit and mood of the book it's based on, and an example of computer animation that shows the human touch in every frame.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Words of wisdom keep popping up in My Dog Tulip with gratifying regularity. They're more likely to gratify dog lovers than anyone else, but that's a large group to which I belong...
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
My Dog Tulip is as disconcerting and unusual a piece of animation as the 1956 memoir that inspired it, and that is saying a lot.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
For the most part, the images undulate. They often appear to be melting. That, or they're streaked or smeared and wholly unruly.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Like the best of Disney's animated films down through the years, the Fierlingers' cartoon celebrates its medium and transcends it. There's great storytelling here.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
One of the most sophisticated dog movies ever created.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Dog lovers won't want to miss My Dog Tulip. Adult dog lovers, that is.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
Transform[s] the seemingly banal relationship between pet and owner into something singular, inimitable, sacred.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
The film's animation, an emulation of The New Yorker cartoon style, may be undistinguished, but the filmmakers' use of color--or lack thereof--and movement is rife with surprise.
