Reviews

For the lexicon of international film Pee- Wee's crazy adventure was a " Unspeakable silly slapstick ," the film was " just a few ideas funny " and " largely annoying ".

Filmzentrale.com however, published a review of Rajko Burchardt: "The fact that Burton film leads to its own origin, is a chutzpah of almost inimitable snappy punch: The first feature film from director initially indulges in fabulierender eccentricity and sizzles child posturing, then uncontrollably a lapsing deconstructivist anarchy. "
