“With near-perfect pacing and a gob-smacking density of punchlines, Bookworm is the sort of movie that will make you excited to repeatedly whisper, “Remember THAT?” — when you catch your breath from laughing (maybe even crying?), and the credits finally roll on a winding adventure that’s very Timpson and yet one of a kind.” – Indiewire
“Bookworm is pure cinematic dopamine. Elija Wood perfectly crafts his failed magician, who charms the hell out of not only the audience, but even eventually his daughter. His opponent here, the precocious Nell Fisher is nothing short of a force to be reckoned with as she manages to steal the show from Wood on a nearly scene by scene basis.” – Cinapse
