T.S. Spivet is a messy, warm comedy about grief, family and imagination. It's also ironically about being seen and rarely heard.

...the hero’s brainwaves and daydreams digitally materialise as quirky marginalia afloat in the skilfully administered 3D. The movie tick-tocks like a scientific instrument.

Berättelsen är ovanligt nedtonad för att komma från Jean-Pierre Jeune... Detsamma gäller Helena Bonham Carters tolkning av dr Clair, vilket är både uppfriskande och passande för historien. Det är fortfarande en visuell fest...
