Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

At times, it may succeed at manipulating you, but you won't like it. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

To quote the film's wisest alien, who just happens to be occupying the body of an ugly-ass pug dog, 'You don't like it, you can kiss my furry little butt.' full review
