      Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle Putting the "fun" in "dysfunction" is what The Mitchells vs. The Machines is about, and what family doesn't have some issues? Jan 13, 2022 Full Review Esther Zuckerman Thrillist It's the kind of movie you immediately want to watch again and again. Jul 29, 2021 Full Review Damian Levy DamianMichaelMovies.com Whether it's tears of joy or tears of sadness, Mitchells vs the Machines will have you shedding a few of either or both. Rated: Big Screen Watch Jun 5, 2021 Full Review Michael Clark Epoch Times What the “Machine” filmmakers did here is to point this out in a humorous and lighthearted manner why AI is the last thing humanity needs at the moment. To be sure, it is a cautionary tale and does so without any furrow-browed, tsk-tsk, finger-wagging. Rated: 4/5 Jan 3, 2024 Full Review Jillian Chilingerian Offscreen With Jillian The Mitchells vs. The Machines puts a new spin on the dysfunctional family trope by setting it in the midst of a smartphone apocalypse. Aug 22, 2023 Full Review Rick Bentley KGET-TV (Bakersfield, CA) Rianda and Rowe deliver their smart script with animation that ranges from traditional to chaotic. Even when the presentation jumps around, the film never loses focus. Rated: 3.5/4 Aug 10, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

      Kirk Seriously Loved this movie all over again!!! One of of the best animated movies of the year, one of the best movies of the year, and Definitely of the best MOVIES ever made period! I implore everyone who can go see The Mitchells vs the Machines in theaters Now and tomorrow. Had a wonderful time all over again and first timers will too! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/20/21 Full Review Carter C It’s not the most original story (just another A.I. taking over the world-type story), but this movie is sure to get a handful of laughs out of the viewer, or at least a “Hey, that’s how I feel too!” for the people who find this movie similar to their real life. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/16/24 Full Review robert r It is so hilarious! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/12/24 Full Review Emilliano Jr S Weird but great. Everything was almost perfect. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/01/24 Full Review Reece K Absolutely loved it, quirky with an equally quirky soundtrack, but entertaining from start to finish. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/29/24 Full Review Ray J. E Easily one of my top five favorite animated films ever! Creative and colorful, with a pitch perfect voice cast. Sharply written with wit and heart. A relatable gem for families and movie lovers alike. This! This is how you make a modern day animated film for the entire family to enjoy. The mouse should take notes… Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/15/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
