Metascore®Universal acclaimbased on a weighted average of allcritic review scores.
With its brainy scientist heroine, and surreal, super-kitsch imagery, above-average Japanese anime sci-fi pic Paprika has a better chance than most Nipponese toons of breaking out of the specialty ghetto by appealing to femme auds as well as the genre's core constituency of fanboys.

It is an intelligently written piece that only falters during the finale.
We've gotten perhaps too used to the computerized wizardry of our own cartoon features; Kon, like Miyazaki shows us some older ways that can still transfix us.
Satoshi Kon, whose previous film was the remarkable "Tokyo Godfathers," uses the complex plot as a pretext for joyous psychedelia.
Kon's best work yet.
A gorgeous riot of future-shock ideas and brightly animated imagery, the doors of perception never close.
Fantasy leaks into reality.
