Extraordinary Tales Ratings & Reviews
rachelsreviews.net
Rachel Wagner
For me The Tell-Tale Heart was really the only short I loved. The rest had major flaws that took me away from the film.
Common Sense Media
Sandie Angulo Chen
Poe's creepy, unevenly adapted tales aren't for young kids.
Under the Radar
Zach Hollwedel
Unsure of its targeted demographic, Tales straddles the tonal line, flip-flopping like a fish left on the dock.
Variety
Justin Chang
Five stories by Edgar Allan Poe get varied treatment in this striking but inert animated compendium.
Fat Guys at the Movies
Kevin Carr
the definitive works of Edgar Allan Poe on the big screen
HeraldNet (Everett, WA)
Robert Horton
The fact that an author who died 166 years ago continues to be a draw for moviemakers says something about Edgar Allan Poe's imagination. And here's a feverish new animated Poe feature -- released just in time for Halloween.
Paste Magazine
Andy Crump
Extraordinary Tales leaves us wishing for more: more running time, more of Poe's material, more of Garcia's macabre animated magic.
Boston Herald
James Verniere
Garcia brings these classic Poe tales to life with the notable aid of atmospheric score by Sergio de la Puente.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Poe's storytelling gift is so timeless, and the voice actors assembled so captivating, that "Extraordinary Tales" can't help but work on some level. It just never quite rises above that faint praise.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
With its weak framing story and hastily assembled formatting, Extraordinary Tales simply is the sum of parts--not a whole.
Los Angeles Times
Charles Solomon
"Extraordinary Tales" reminds viewers that animation can enable an artist to realize an individual vision, even on a limited budget.
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
Just in time for Halloween comes this singular tribute to Edgar Allan Poe from veteran animator Raul Garcia.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
The best sections reverberate with the power of Poe's words. As such, they serve as apt tributes to yarns that will always be more formidable on the page than on the screen.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
The voices of the late Christopher Lee and Bela Lugosi reading from the text isn't quite the same. But Garcia compensates with a different animation style for each of the five stories.
Film Journal International
Ethan Alter
Despite working from extraordinary subject matter-Edgar Allan Poe's various tales of the macabre-too many entries in this animated anthology are disappointingly ordinary.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Chris Hewitt
It's no substitute for Poe's atmospheric writing, but it's a pretty good introduction to it.
AV Club
Tasha Robinson
In spite of the common source material and tone of oppressive psychological horror, these shorts feel like they could be the work of five different people.
Slant Magazine
Carson Lund
It offers a CliffsNotes encapsulation of Edgar Allen Poe's most enduring works for viewers unacquainted with them.
