Earns its ponderous tone, and the final moments are as fitting as they are unexpected.

Rating: 3/4 --
Notable for its relatively intelligent script, for some imaginatively amusing special effects, and for an existential streak which finally has our (tiny) hero pondering the meaning of existence.

TV Guide
The surreal intensity of outsize objects that loom as the hero shrinks is handled effectively, and the mystical happy ending is a better payoff than one would expect of the genre.

Director Jack Arnold works up the chills for maximum effect by the time Williams is down to two inches and the family cat takes after him.

Williams gives a sensitive portrayal of a man hounded by the media and consigned to a freak's world, whose descent into being and nothingness provides a memorable climax.
