The Hollywood Reporter
An exceptional animated feature from Spain, Wrinkles imaginatively and sensitively explore one of the major issues confronting most of the developed world: how to look after senior citizens in a rapidly aging population. - 100
Village Voice
Ignacio Ferreras's traditionally animated Wrinkles is a beautiful, subtle horror movie about the rigors of old age, made all the more horrifying because it will happen to all of us fortunate enough to live a long life. - 80
The Guardian
This movie has the same desolate quality as Philip Larkin's poem The Building, and yet it is tender and lovable, too. - 80
The Telegraph
It’s a compact and obliquely moving film, deftly constructed to let the dying of the light arrive, not as sunset, but a kind of dawn. - 80
Total Film
Its shuffling pace and basic animation all add to the heartbreak as the protagonists slowly unravel, even as they fight to keep a grip. - 80
Variety
Although nothing here quite matches the moving, life-in-five-minutes montage in Pixar’s “Up,” one swooping flashback sequence comes very close. - 80
New York Daily News
Ferreras is similarly frank, but heavy doses of humor and empathy, along with gorgeous hand-drawn animation, keep things from getting too morbid. - 75
Slant Magazine
In its visionary dream and flashback sequences, the film becomes a comment on the rapidly diminished state of traditional animation.
