The animation is lovely -- clean, pure and filled with aching, gorgeous colour.

The Tyee (British Columbia)
THE BOY AND THE WORLD is part fantasy, part social realism. It’s both joyous and angry -- an explosion of abstract colors that resolves into a vision of stooped human figures struggling to survive. -- Grade: B+
A.V. Club
Rating: B+ --
Although the film is a bit abstract and largely free of dialogue (what little speaking there is is a whispered babble of tongues), it has a universal simplicity-we're seeing life through the wide, innocent eyes of a naif.

It wears its politics on its sleeve, and that's probably where they belong.

The little boy here... is one of the most distinctive and adorable animated characters you'll ever come across, and his introduction to "the world out there" is a moving revelation indeed.

The little boy here, a stick-figured, button-headed, wide-eyed tot with a signature red-and-white striped shirt, is one of the most distinctive and adorable animated characters you’ll ever come across, and his introduction to 'the world out there' is a moving revelation indeed.
Chicago Sun-Times
It's filled with striking moments, but the general effect is more suitable to a midnight audience than a children's matinee.
