What the Critics say | ||
| Cape Argus / The Star Zane Henry  Short, vague, visually dazzling animated film | 10 |  |
| Die Burger Jeanne Calitz Donker durf en daad bangmaak-sprokie | 15 |  |
| Cape Times Michael Sragow More than mere puppets | 10 | |
| Box Office Pete Hammond A different breed of animation | 13 |  |
| Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert The best reason to see it is simply because of the creativity of its visuals. They're entrancing. | 15 | |
| eye Weekly Will Sloan Without anyone to care about, the action becomes dull and repetitive, and even the post-apocalyptic landscape starts to look run-of-the-mill. | 5 |  |
| ScreenIt C. Fuchs Considering the amount of detail that was obviously put into the visuals, one only wishes as much creative and imaginative effort would have been put into the script. | 12 | |
| Metacritic.com 31 critics | 12 | |
| Rottentomatoes critics 174 critics | 12 | |
| Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer Although its story is perhaps too familiar and less complex than some might wish, 9 is visually spectacular, and director Shane Acker's attention to detail succeeds in drawing viewers into the film's universe. | 11 | |
