Critics Consensus
Another beautifully animated triumph for Laika, Missing Link is a visual treat with lots of humor, plenty of heart, and even a little food for thought.
Kathleen Sachs Chicago Reader 02/19/2020 The film is sophisticated in its revisionist take on the adventure genre, introducing social and ecological concerns into the mix, though its irreverent humor is still accessible to children. Go to Full Review Christy Lemire FilmWeek (LAist) 09/27/2019 The pieces are all there... [but] I kind of would have preferred to watch the making of the movie than the actual movie.

Michael P @TheeMichael-jai Jun 4 Charming and friendly in all aspects. See more Mateo S @Moviestar243 Mar 20 I don't like this movie. What the hell is Missing Link? Why is this creepy monkey's even NAMED "Mr. Link"? I bet I rolled my dumb eyes out seeing something even more cringier than I expected. I prefer Boxtrolls and Coraline as better Laika movies anyways. See more Ben P @RT03959963 Mar 3 Well-animated movie with many funny parts, which is what I look for in a movie.
