Undeniably and unsurprisingly one of the most gorgeously animated films of the year. On a semi-unrelated note: It is weird that THIS was the film that really made me think about how horrific a film industry dominated by streaming services looks like. Like you can really…

Patrick WillemsDec 16, 2020In a time when shitty live action remakes of Disney classics rule the box office, doing hand-drawn animation is an act of rebellion.

Irish animation studio Cartoon Saloon may not be able to match the impact or consistency of Japan’s Studio Ghibli (who can?), but the Kilkenny-based outfit has gradually emerged as one of the world’s last and most valuable bulwarks against the crude and craven soullessness…
davidehrlichOct 20, 2020AFI 2020: film #10 “there’s two of us now” absolutely delightful. some of the plot points can easily be guessed just like most family films, but the animation is gorgeous and the loving warmth radiates off every frame like the sun
LucyThis movie has the most weirdly inconsistent animation I've ever seen, there are some scenes that are straight-up some of the most gorgeous things I've ever witnessed, and then others where the character designs look like parodies and I can't tell what the focal point of…

yeah i’m never shutting up about how good this is!!!!!!!
˗ˏˋ suspirliam ˊˎ˗Dec 31, 2020Feels like I didn't give this movie the attention it deserved because i watched it over the course of a week, constantly reminding myself "ahh I really should finish Wolfwalkers" like it was a slog of a TV show and not a perfectly good movie. Big Hunchback/Pocahantas vibes…
demi adejuyigbeDec 21, 2020Wolfwalkers mixes heartwarming humanity and a strong dose of political overtone, in a magical, melancholy folklore tale that's equal parts mature and carefree. Set in an imagined Irish town, where the theme of good v. evil is again echoed, with a resounding political twist…

8.5/10 The art style is out of this world. It’s like you’re watching characters traverse a painting. It’s easily worth a watch for that alone, but the story is also extremely touching and sweet. Definitely a gem
Mario lovedWolfwalkersAbsolutely loved it! I cried so much, and even the day after, i still think about it and i cry. It was so perfect, i was told to watch it back in 2020 during covid, but took so long now im so glad i did, would’ve been an amazing movie to watch during quarantine.
Tyler lovedWolfwalkers10/10 The animation and the theme of this movie is phenomenally good. Must watch if this art style appeals to you!

This movie just made me upset the whole time. It was just so difficult to watch. The main character is an idiot who ruins everyone around her, thier entire lives. It's a metaphor for the abuse by Christianity and patriarchy control of women.
Emily Morigan lovedWolfwalkersThe animation style is very refreshing compared to common modern cartoons. As a lover of wolves and Irish mythology absolutely loved this story.
Brandon White lovedWolfwalkersWith beautiful animation and an engaging story, Wolfwalkers is once again an amazing effort from Cartoon Saloon that needs more attention.

Nothing tears a family apart like a pack of ravenous wolves. This film is a feast for the eyes. Stories good too.
JFJohn FriedrichEvocative, original, and lots of fun to watch.
DCDeven CiufaloWhat a beautiful film! If you’re a fan of 2D animation or Irish folklore please watch it if you can!

Every detail here, every flourish, has a purpose, whether splashes of red on flower petals, soft edges around dusk-lit trees, or three-panel split screen sequences that read like the pages of illuminated manuscripts brought to life.

As much a joy as this movie . . . is to behold, its scenario is more than a little overbaked and overdrawn.

Wolfwalkers is a beautiful movie for fans of animation and families with young children. If you want to ween the little ones off Disney’s overproduced glitz and turn them on to alternative forms of animation and storytelling, Wolfwalkers is a great place to start.
