Critics Consensus

A sweet ode to rediscovering one's inner child, IF largely works as old-fashioned family entertainment despite an occasionally unfocused and unnecessarily complicated plot.

This Pixar-ish fable by John Krasinski falls a little short of the films it resembles.

The Nightly (AUえーゆー)

Bright, imaginative and visually charming with wonderful creature designs, IF wears its very big heart on its sleeve.

Rated: 3/5

This is a film aimed at the young and easily impressionable, and how unabashed it is about the way it courts those viewers works in its favor. Until it really doesn't.

The Wee Review

It may be slightly lacking in terms of laughter, aiming for the heartstrings instead, but given the dearth of quality family entertainment recently, <i>IF</i> is a welcome tonic.

Rated: 3

Discussing Film

Each viewer will be able to take something rather emotional away from this family film’s reflections on the fleeting nature of childhood while also having an overall fun time at the movies.

Rated: 3.5/5

There's plenty of emotional and cute moments, and Ryan Reynolds is always a joy, but I don't think they dive into the imagination concept as well as they should have

A good film about growing up and the nostalgia of childhood. Felt like it was more a feel good movie for adults rather than a kids movie. Not going to lie...as a dad, it made me tear up a bit

It was amazing. Don’t listen to the critics . It has everything and everyone you want in a movie. What a great story and the acting is wonderful- Bea is an amazing actress. And how can you wrong with John Krasinski and Ryan Reynolds?! Well, YOU CAN’T!! GO see the film now before it leaves the theater. It’s the perfect heartwarming story we need right about now.
