"This anime feature takes an intriguing premise and does little with it. The detailed Ghibli-esque visuals are decent enough, but this is disappointingly bland."

Time Out
Time Out"Wolf Children is rather an odd story, told in a one-of-a-kind style that feels equal parts sentimental, somber and strange."

Los Angeles Times
Los Angeles Times"Telling the story through the eyes of the harried, bereaved but indomitable mother gives this calm, funny, only occasionally schmaltzy family film a maturity Twilight never reached."
—
The Guardian
The Guardian"The movie is hauntingly romantic at heart, in the best spirit of a Gothic fairytale, but without the harsh shadows or hard edges."
