Critics Consensus

I Kill Giants' moody magical realism sometimes slips into the mundane, but impressive CGI and a powerhouse performance by Madison Wolfe pack an unexpected punch.

One of the most brilliantly crafted, atmospheric, realistic movies I've seen in a while. Yes, I know it wasn't marketed correctly, but I am sick to death of people giving it bad ratings purely because they wanted to watch a monster-slaying fantasy epic. That does not bring down the quality of the movie itself, just the marketing team.

The worst movie I have ever seen… Just go watch “A Monster Calls”, it’s so much better than this hunk of shit. If I could give it zero stars, I would…

A solo un anno di distanza da "7 minuti dopo la mezzanotte" questo film ne ripercorre tutti i principali temi senza fare sostanziali modifiche; ad eccezione forse della location più estiva e dei colori più vividi ed accesi. Il tema sicuramente è di interesse ma manca quasi totalmente l'innovazione nell'affrontarlo e anzi, la sceneggiatura sembra un po' troppo incentrata sulla lotta ai giganti immaginari, con un'aggiunta sommaria e mal riuscita relativamente al bullismo. Nonostante questo il finale riesce sorprendentemente ad emozionare. Vengono purtroppo totalmente sacrificati i personaggi dei familiari, tra cui quello potenzialmente molto interessante di Imogen Poots.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Do you want to know the wonderful things about movies? They reflect the spirit that resides in the minds of writers and producers. And a well delivered movie reflects the actors who have been possed by those spirits!I just get to sit back and drink it all in.

There should be a separate genre heading for this film: time-wasting droopy fantasy.

It's not Donnie Darko, but it may delight the nerdie tween weirdo in your life.

I Kill Giants is a fantasy, a beautiful allegory of growing up “different” and a deft handling of a storyline that could have been either too cute, or far too adult.

With an imaginative premise framing a poignant tale of acceptance, the film is utterly delightful.

Cinapse

I Kill Giants is a different kind of comic book movie, one that has a heart and soul missing from the current box office fodder. I adored everything about this film and found its complex dream-like narrative poignant as well as refreshing.
