Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Rather than a fresh breeze, it's the stale air of gilded calculation, the uncomfortable feeling that things are excessively "just so," that overhangs much that is genuinely appealing about this film.
– Kenneth Turan,
Los Angeles Times,
1 Aug 2013
fresh:
This enchanted tale vividly shows how love heals and nurtures barren souls, makes them flourish like abundant Edens.
– Carrie Rickey,
Philadelphia Inquirer,
1 Aug 2013
fresh:
The movie's dark themes, unhurried pace and talkiness make it something of a gamble for many children. But older children -- especially those who have been asking specific questions about death -- may find some nourishment in this garden.
– Jay Boyar,
Orlando Sentinel,
1 Aug 2013
fresh:
While drawing superb performances from her young leads, Holland has masterfully contrasted the garden -- a place where melodic robins seem almost conversant -- with the dread of Misselthwaite.
– Jeff Shannon,
Seattle Times,
1 Aug 2013
fresh:
The result is an instant classic -- rich, dense, resonant, powerful.
– Jay Carr,
