"Though not being his first Miyazaki hommage, this feels a lot more like a perfect blend of each other's respective strenghts than Children Who Chase Lost Voices from Deep Below did. Which may just be symptomatic of Shinkai's growth not necessarily as an artist, but as a craftsman. While I really liked his first feature - and then not much else after that for a while - I really like his stride in recent years. This one probably being my favorite. And maybe even his most unique."

"Very Little Miss Sunshine meets Juno meets Adventureland. But the light version of all them. And without the originality. Which is just a complicated way of saying it's good, but held back a little by the cliché turns it takes. Especially towards the ending. It's very inde in its presentation and hits all the generic beats, but never bends over backwards in favor of becoming an full-on cheesefest. Commendable effort from Rash and Faxon. Nice to see. Low-key feelgood vibes. With a sweet ending."

"You feel in good hands. Kosinski at the helm, no surprise there. Great ensemble cast, topped off by Hemsworth, who probably gives his best performance to date here. It's low-key, but it works. The actors, the score, the soundtrack do carry well. Only to then disappoint with a pretty uninteresting resolution. Everything felt like it was building up to something suspenseful, unexpected, profound....just more than this. Which was a little...kiddie-like. The ending worked well, though, I think."

"Cool cinematography, cool concept. Tropey, sometimes silly, dragged-out execution, nonsensical even when it comes to the core theme, which is a good idea, but... :/ Somehow, I liked the ending, though. Maybe I appreciated the idea behind it, and the stuff leading up to it, but the way it was done it didn't really work, I thought. But it aesthetically tied up what was otherwise going to be just a sorta meh repetetive mess. So it kind of saved the movie for me a little bit."

"Überraschend gut. Sympathie wie auch Substanz betreffend. Könnte was damit zu tun haben, dass Herbst unüberraschend gut ist."

"Gute Bilder, aber da hört's schon auf. Schlechtes Schauspiel, cringer Slapstick...irgendwie scheint sich keiner Mühe gegeben zu haben zumindest irgendwas halbgares draus zu machen."

"Better than I expected on pretty much all fronts. Resonated with me story-wise more than I would have thought. I didn't get sick of Ryan Reynolds halfway through the movie. I didn't get sick of the „Look at me, I'm meta!“ humor. Hugh Jackman was legitimately great in it. The cameos and references were also legitimately great. The action was great. It was a little long (though not too long), and was very plot-over-story, and the villain was bland and boring."
