[Isle of Dogs] is an inversion of "dog is man's best friend." Here the man (or the kid) is dog's best friend. [Full Review in Spanish]

Working in this animated style, allows Wes Anderson to flourish with his style and allows all other cinematic elements to pop out more than they do in his live action films. [Full Review in Spanish]

Art should be about breaking down barriers, not putting up walls.

As a work of animation it is beyond reproach...as a cultural statement, it just leaves a few too many uncomfortable question marks.

The Wes Anderson's second stop motion movie is a visual feast that showcases his gift for detail and control. [Full review in Spanish]

A delight, albeit one that is red in tooth and claw.

Even with a narrative that feels more like a diagram, even with some questionable decisions regarding cultural translation, Isle of Dogs bursts with its maker's drollery and contagious passion for the medium of film.

It remains more a dazzling conceit or experiment rather than a realized whole. We stay on the outside, admiring its originality and all the talent that went into it, without ever really finding our way in.

Anderson's projects have always had a meticulous quality to them, but "Isle of Dogs" is exacting to the point of alienation. Someone needs a leash.

Isle of Dogs is in need of a stronger storyteller. And, yes, there are times when the cleverness starts to feel smug. I would have liked Isle of Dogs more if there had been less of it.
