Sketch

I was cynical at first and thought I wouldn't enjoy this film, but my kids wanted to go so I brought them... and it ended up being the most fun I had in theaters in recent memory! I haven't laughed as hard or frequent in a film in years! My kids were legit on the edge of their seats and one turned and said, "Woh! This movie is intense!"

Brings back the glory and inspired storytelling of the 80s and 90s. The screenwriting, directing, acting and editing was all spectacular! Worthy of the big screen and I feel sorry for anyone who misses out on this movie going experience!

I got to see this movie at TIFF. I absolutely loved the depth of the emotion of this movie and definitely both laughed and cried out loud. The performances are incredible, in particular the kids. The VFX are also incredibly well realized - there is so much texture and unique detailing in the creatures, which is cool, but it also really serves the plot and the role they play in the story. I am not a parent, so I can't speak to how kid-appropriate it is for younger ages, but I think this is a perfect movie for truly anyone old enough to understand death and loss. I will definitely be recommending this to many people.

Did an early mystery movie release, brought two kids: both teen/tween range and they laughed, gasped and maybe a bit of a jump scare or two. It's not a perfect movie as you can read by some of the grumps here expecting an Oscar worthy effort but it's definitely worth a viewing, if only to remember what it was like to have an imagination and just sketch and why many of us sketched as kids.

This movie involves fantasy, monsters and family and friends protecting each other during a time of danger. It is an allegory and deals with the loss of a wife and parent and approaches how each family member deals with their grief individually and collectively. It is very entertaining with both funny, scary (even for adults), and poignancy. Great film that reminded me of a re-envisioned Jumanji (the original film) that comes from a sketchbook instead of a game. Not for very small, sensitive children. Wonderful family film with a deep lesson that brought me to tears having recently experienced my own loss of a loved one.

Funny. Hilarious. Smart. With a giant, beautiful heart and soul!.

Seth Worley is a genius, and Sketch is his masterpiece.

Tony Hale brings remarkable depth to his role-delivering moments of comedic brilliance that remind us why he's so beloved, while also nailing the emotional weight of the film in ways that bring tears to your eyes.

D'Arcy Carden perfectly balances the tone of Sketch with a dynamic performance and masterful craft.

The young ensemble cast-many making their big-screen debut-are the magic at the heart of this film.

The writing? Impeccable.

The direction? Masterful.

The acting? Flawless.

In every way, Sketch is a must-see summer movie meant to be experienced in theaters.
