The Map of Tiny Perfect Things

"Adds a wrinkle to the genre with its nerdy but accessible slant of comedy, fantasy and romance."

"Adjacent to the recent glut of weepy YA films, but manages enough crucial shading and difference to stand apart."

"Hilarious. And it makes us viewers complicit with a storyline that makes something less than total sense, but does so in such a good-natured way that we don't really care."

"Every day is exactly the same. That's how it goes in time-loop stories, and how it can feel to write about them, too. The writers of these stories must also get bored."

"There are surprisingly deep meditations on love and loss surrounding the occasional zingers, big gestures and countless cinematic references."

"In the process of merging formulas... recycles the same material it seems inclined to rejuvenate, one step at a time."

"The Map of Tiny Perfect Things holds a contained, idealized world - a trove of romcom enjoyment and small treasures I had no problem looping through."

"The feature's genteel, sweet spirit and radiant lead performances rescue it from forgettable mediocrity and genre familiarity."
