Phoebe in Wonderland Critic Reviews

  • "...Like its main characters, the film is having an identity crisis -- is it a parable for adults or a fable for children? Its childlike whimsy doesn't always fit with its very grown-up themes..." Los Angeles Times

    - Betsy Sharkey

  • "Given all it sets out to do, it's not surprising it doesn't always succeed. But when it does, it can be thought-provoking and emotionally wrenching." USA Today

    - Claudia Puig

  • "Whenever tyro writer-director Daniel Barnz sticks to his luminous star, his script's blatant inconsistency reads as willful ambiguity." Variety

    - Ronnie Scheib
