Wendell & Wild Ratings & Reviews
DwightBrownInk.com
Dwight Brown
Sometimes there's too many cooks in the kitchen. Sometimes there are too many storylines in a movie. Same difference.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
This needs a lot more chaos energy to power it past the rough spots. None of this should detract from the movie's good elements and better-angels best intentions.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
As offbeat and personal as the director's best.
Polygon
Tasha Robinson
Wendell & Wild's biggest narrative problem is its lack of a strong central focus.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
A brave young heroine (Lyric Ross as Kat), wildly imaginative visuals that reward a second and third viewing, and some nicely satisfying twists.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
"Wendell & Wild" may not succeed, but I took heart from this: At least it doesn't succeed in unconventional ways.
Boston Globe
Odie Henderson
Fans of "Key & Peele" will love their latest duet. Much of their dialogue sounds improvised, and the pair work off each other like the pros they are.
Crooked Marquee
Kimber Myers
Stop-motion movies - and films this bizarre - aren't easy to get made. Wendell & Wild is something special: a little messy, but so weird and wonderful.
New York Times
Maya Phillips
The story lines feel far-flung and disconnected, and the limits and rules of this world's magical logic are at turns underdeveloped and inconsistent.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
It's the perfect Halloween movie and one of the best animated films of 2022.
Associated Press
Mark Kennedy
In many ways, this film has the creepiness of The Nightmare Before Christmas fused with the girl-power of Coraline but for less pay-off than either.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Amy Nicholson
This is a very strange movie in its moments, even if the execution is dull as anything.
San Francisco Chronicle
Bob Strauss
[Selick has] made another creepy holiday classic with "Wendell & Wild," and if some of it makes your tummy ache, that's OK. It was most likely intended to.
AV Club
Mark Keizer
It's so packed with gloriously demented visuals and bold thematic swings that try, with varying degrees of success, to lift the film out of the realm of pure fantasy, that we're not entirely bothered by the convoluted story.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
"Wendell & Wild" actually has a few things to say (about teenage grief, the privatization of prisons, and raising your parents from the dead), but mostly it's content to fly off in all elegantly cracked directions.
TheWrap
Lena Wilson
Given its authorial heft, the greatest sin of "Wendell & Wild" isn't that it's flawed; it's that it's forgettable.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
It's a busy plot - too busy by about half - but Selick's vision is as fresh and unfettered as ever, and his black and purple color tapestry is a window into a dark and colorful world.
Entertainment Weekly
Joshua Rothkopf
You'll forgive the movie its cluttered shagginess because its universe is so strange - even an icy puddle is rendered exquisitely.
IndieWire
Emma Stefansky
Wendell & Wild feels like a comeback in many ways, while also conjuring something totally new.
Autostraddle
Drew Gregory
This isn't just inclusive children's entertainment - it's inclusive children's entertainment that actually engages with the realities of the people it represents.
