Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A sensitive and beautifully made lesson in the limits and power of storytelling.

fresh:
There's a truly monstrous film lurking in here somewhere, but Bayona seems hell-bent on keeping it at bay.

rotten:
A splendidly rendered, yet oddly ill-conceived terminal-illness melodrama that feels much too dark and serious for audiences Conor's age, and an even more curious fit for grown-ups.
– Peter Debruge,

fresh:
Considering how easily the material could turn maudlin, it's especially notable that Bayona avoids overstatement.
