Critic Reviews
-
Brian Lowry, Variety
Built on a wispy premise better suited to the realm of TV, The Pagemaster plays like a slickly produced afternoon special.
-
Caryn James, New York Times
A pallid film framed at the start and finish by live action and mostly composed of cheap-looking animation.
-
Rita Kempley, Washington Post
A splendidly original children's fantasy about the world of books.
-
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
This clever, often engaging, and always fast-paced motion picture uses the visual medium to encourage its viewers to reach out with their imagination.
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
A sad and dreary film.
