-
"As oddball as the creature that inspired it, 'The Hedgehog' warms the heart with its prickly tale."
-
"Le Guillermic is fine in this calm comedy of subverted exteriors and expectations, but it's the remarkably unpretentious -- earthy, even -- Balasko who anchors Achache's adaptation."
-
"Lacking any depth of its own, this upper-middlebrow French drama resorts to the old trick of referencing acknowledged masters."
-
"A satisfying emotional experience."
-
"A reminder that, sometimes, the movies can get a beloved book exactly right"
-
"This a movie with such a light, stylish touch, it makes no claims to profundity and is a sweetly hopeful experience."
