THE LONELIEST BOY IN THE WORLD is billed as a modern fairytale--except with zombies. When the sheltered and unsocialized Oliver is tasked with making new friends after the sudden and devastating death of his mother, he decides that digging a few up (literally) might be his best bet. However, when he awakens the morning after his excavating escapades, he discovers that his newly acquired friends have mysteriously come to life overnight, launching them all into a series of misadventures as they try to keep their secret safe from neighbors, classmates, and social workers alike.

Sheila O'Malley RogerEbert.com The film relies too heavily on cliche and hopes the audience won't notice. Rated: 1.5/4 •  Oct 14, 2022 Full Review Simon Abrams TheWrap The gags tend to be so broad and lazy that it鈥檚 hard to imagine how this movie鈥檚 retro-bait sensibility will appeal to anyone other than the targets of this poisoned-apple crowdpleaser鈥檚 toothless criticism.
