		Jessica Kiang IndieWire	"An unmitigated triumph."
		Stephen Holden The New York Times	"'Electrick Children' is well acted and refreshingly nonjudgmental."
		Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter	"You needn't be a true believer to appreciate Rebecca Thomas's indie feature rooted in a traditional Mormon community."
		Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News	"Thomas makes an assured debut as both writer and director, the gifted Culkin is excellent as always, and Garner finds lovely shades of nuance. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)"
