Yep, he's an odd one all right. You're likely to get tired of hearing about it pretty quick, though.

Bruce Ingram, Chicago Sun-Times

Odd Thomas is an engagingly lightweight and occasionally visually inventive film that should appeal to Koontz fans and anyone else open to his whimsical approach to horror.

Cary Darling, Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Fresh

An endearing, witty romantic dramedy-slash-supernatural-thriller about a small desert town in California beset by demonic apparitions and a satanic cabal of deranged would-be mass murderers.

Tirdad Derakhshani, Philadelphia Inquirer
Rotten

At once comic, tragic and goofily romantic, and resting too often on Odd's clarifying narration, this young-adult lark breaches the nonsense barrier with some regularity.

Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
Rotten

Odd Thomas has high-speed chases, explosions, narrow escapes and masses of special effects-none special enough, I'm afraid, to save it from mediocrity.

Rex Reed, New York Observer
