What reviewers have said about our work :

In one sequence that is among the most visually exciting I have ever seen, he occupies a landscape that is a painting, and as he plucks a flower it turns to oil paint in his hand.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

It must be said that nothing quite like this painted world has been seen in a major feature film before, as it no doubt would have been impossible to create such a thing so credibly before the advent of the sort of sophisticated digital visual effects that can make three-dimensional spaces out of two-dimensional art works. Drawing upon diverse artistic influences, the film's backgrounds provide a genuine feast for the eyes.
Todd McCarthy, Variety
