Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Built on a wispy premise better suited to the realm of TV, The Pagemaster plays like a slickly produced afternoon special.
– Brian Lowry,
Variety,

rotten:
Mediocre, really, this mixture of real actors and animation.
– Derek Adams,
Time Out,
24 Jun 2006
rotten:
A pallid film framed at the start and finish by live action and mostly composed of cheap-looking animation.
– Caryn James,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
fresh:
A splendidly original children's fantasy about the world of books.

Washington Post,

This clever, often engaging, and always fast-paced motion picture uses the visual medium to encourage its viewers to reach out with their imagination.
