"It's a vibrant, varied array of guttings, garrottings, boobs and brains with plenty of bang for your buck, mixing animation with live action and spanning nations, languages, subgenres and styles. Whether you're a fan of shorts or not will likely affect your irritation/enjoyment ratio – at over two hours and with such a large number of entries ABCs can be somewhat relentless. A is certainly for "attention deficit", with each segment – made for around $5000 – averaging three minutes or less. Not enough time to establish characters or complex stories, or to engage more than superficially, but it does mean that the individual shorts never linger long enough to be annoying or boring either." - Rosie Fletcher, SFX Magazine
