	Author	Review
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"A one-of-a-kind piece of subversive surrealism filmed clandestinely at Disney World is far too haphazard, but offers images that will long stick in the mind"	POS
United States	Rob Nelson Variety	"'Escape From Tomorrow' is a sneakily subversive exercise in low-budget surrealism and anti-corporate satire."	NEU
United States	Eric Kohn IndieWire	"A labyrinthine descent into the grotesque extremes of a Disneyfied society, 'Escape From Tomorrow' is surreal for many reasons and wholly original because of them."	POS
United Kingdom	Damon Wise The Guardian	"'Escape From Tomorrow' has an otherworldly atmosphere that both hooks and engages. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	A. O. Scott The New York Times	"None of it is as scary or as funny as it should be, and what starts out as a sly thumb in the eye of corporate power ends up as a muddled and amateurish homage to David Lynch."	NEG
