"It's a true original -- a comedy maverick that looks and feels like no other movie I know."
- Christian Science Monitor

"It's surreal, funny, clever and disarming in equal measures."
- Film4

"Burton's first feature revels in the weird, the unpredictable, the infantile and the absurd. A dazzling debut."
- Empire Magazine
