Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
On paper, Chomsky and Gondry seem like an eternal mismatch, but these two very smart people share an odd but genuine chemistry ...
– David Lewis,

rotten:
Probably of interest only to those viewers who, like Gondry himself apparently, already have an obsession with Chomsky.

fresh:
What emerges from the chats and the drawings and the animation is an often-fascinating glimpse at both genius and the creative process (itself a kind of genius, after all). If it sounds boring, it isn't. If it sounds weird, it is - but weird in a good way.
– Bill Goodykoontz,
Arizona Republic,

fresh:
Tthe onscreen result is a striking inquiry into how we comprehend the world, neatly divided between a man of words and a man of images

fresh:
An almost entirely hand-drawn, animated film that was clearly a labor of love for the director and has enough charm to reach a wider audience than his other recent docs.
