Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
An animated movie about troubled teens, and quite possibly for them as well, because it's so very like them: alternately sweet and scary, tender and violent, dense and scattered, and oh yes, childlike and adult.

San Diego Reader
A stirring tale of empowerment, the documentary SOUFRA shows how societal change can begin with small steps.
New York Times
Rating: 4/5 --
With imagery that shifts seamlessly from the kawaii to the diabolical, not least in a darkly psychedelic sequence near the end, this is a film that really makes its mark.

I guarantee you it will be a film experience unlike any you've had before and that has to count for something.

Rating: B+ --
This is a beautiful film, and an ugly one, and the tension between those two sides doesn't abate until the very last scene.

Rating: 3/5 --
Forceful images are scattered throughout the meditative miserablism of Birdboy, but the film is uneven and chilly to the touch.

Dare Daniel
Given how rigid and formulaic most mainstream animation is, there's something liberating about watching a traditionally hand-drawn cartoon thumb its nose so gleefully at traditional G-rated storytelling.
