	Author	Review
United States	Alonso Duralde The Wrap	"Hanks gives another moving, relatable performance in a saga that doesn’t have much new to say about doomsday"	NEU
United States	Tomris Laffly Variety	Big-hearted and bolstered by a genuine love of dogs, Miguel Sapochnik's Post-Apocalyptic saga is the right blend of style and substance with the epic story of a man, robot and canine""	POS
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"At a time when feature-length sci-fi is dominated by franchise spectacle, someone made a tender, quiet, and terrifically affecting post-apocalyptic drama"	POS
United States	David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter	"Finch wins no prizes for subtlety or originality, but there’s always an audience for this kind of sweet assault on the tear ducts, especially when there’s a cute dog involved."	NEU
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"An adorable trio pootle around a post-apocalyptic world in this sentimental sci-fi that curiously lacks any sense of danger (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Chris Evangelista SlashFilm	"'Finch' feels slightly cobbled together from other, similar pieces of entertainment (...) I couldn't help but think that the film would probably be even better had Spielberg himself helmed it."	NEU
United Kingdom	Ian Sandwell Digital Spy	"Sapochnik smartly avoids piling on the apocalyptic clichés (...) Finch is going to make you cry. Even the hardest of hearts will be moved by the final third (...) Puntuación: ★★★★ (sobre 5)"	POS
United States	Mike D'Angelo AV Club	"Finch’s main problem is its amiable, low-key vibe, which feels at odds with such a grim scenario. At times, the movie plays like a buddy comedy"	NEU
United States	Matt Goldberg Collider	"Pleasant enough but fails to surprise (...) It’s comfortable being a pastiche of more interesting movies, and I suppose as far as streaming content goes, that’s fine"	NEU
Canada	Debopriyaa Dutta Screen Rant	"Perfectly balancing tense drama with charming humor, Finch highlights the best and worst of humanity, and a robot-dog friendship worth remembering."	POS
United States	Jason Bailey The Playlist	"Long stretches of “Finch” are entertaining enough, compelling even, but there’s never a clear sense of what Sapochnik and his team are trying to accomplish, aside from reminding you of other movies"	NEU
United States	Chris Barsanti Slant	"The end of the world may never have had less impact (...) for a film that mostly plays out as a two-hander between a robot and his maker, it’s a mostly limping and curiously lighthearted affair (...) Rating: ★½ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Jacob Oller Paste Magazine	"Finch so familiarly slots into our cultural idea of a post-apocalypse that it’s almost depressing (...) a forgettable sci-fi with standout elements"	NEU
Canada	Peter Martin Screen Anarchy	"It's a road-trip movie with Hanks as your pilot. He doesn't always fly right, but he has a fantastic sense of direction, and so does 'Finch'"	POS
United Kingdom	Olly Richards Empire	"Tom Hanks is more than enough to make this almost one-man show thrilling and heart-breaking. Prepare to weep. Doubly so if you're a dog person (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	John Serba Decider	"A bleak and whimsical sci-fi vehicle for Tom Hanks (...) But it's thoughtful escapism, made richer by its amiably charismatic star"	NEU
United States	M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut	"An understated understatement (...) 'Finch' attempts to ride on the coattails of a winning formula that isn't earned (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Alistair Ryder The Film Stage	"It certainly deserves some plaudits for not killing off the dog like so many other films would. 'Finch' is inconsistent, but ultimately charming"	POS
United States	Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times	"Hanks is as great as you'd expect him to be (...) 'Finch' ends exactly as we expect it to end —but what should be an emotional and profound conclusion feels manufactured (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Samantha Nelson IGN	"Excellent visuals and strong performances make moments of 'Finch' shine, but the film's lackluster story never really feels like it justifies its existence"	NEU
