"Rudger in the Attic" may not be a standout in the rich and wide-ranging oeuvre of its makers, but it is a moving and charming testament to the delights of dreaming.

8 / 10
"Rudger in the Attic" is a breathtaking wonder of animation that, while familiar in many regards, also more than stands on its own before leaping into a fantastical world.

8 / 10
"Rudger in the Attic" brings a degree of sophistication to its storytelling that at times evokes the kaleidoscopic, constantly evolving worlds of Christopher Nolan’s Inception.
- Wendy Ide -
7 / 10
The movie falters periodically under the weight of its own dream logic, which can be hard to follow or flimsily constructed as the story gains momentum. But it’s mostly easy to move past those flaws in a work of such rich magical realism and heart.

6 / 10
But with no Ghibli film in the offing, "Rudger in the Attic" is an often delightful way to fill the anime gap.
- Phil de Semlyen -
5.8 / 10
There are moments of genuine magic that make you wonder what this movie could have been.
- Gregory Ellwood
