Brad Wheeler Globe and Mail A modest, not-quite-believable modern fable about coming of age, lost innocence and finding one's own way. Rated: 2/4 May 6, 2016 Full Review Alex Heeney Seventh Row But [The Rainbow Kid] is not a light and gooey family film about how a boy with a disability teaches the able-bodied about life. It's something much smarter, much darker, and much more necessary. Aug 14, 2017 Full Review Chris Knight National Post I thought I had this film's number. Turns out it had mine. Rated: 3/4 May 6, 2016 Full Review Glenn Sumi NOW Toronto Paputts runs into some problems with tone as the situations grow darker. But Harman's relaxed, naturalistic performance acts as a balm, and Christine Bougie's original music gives a touch of magic to the proceedings. Rated: 3/5 May 4, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
