FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/dust-bunny-movie-review-mads-mikkelsen-and-sophie-sloan-elevate-a-familiar-tale/
"Dust Bunny doesn't reinvent the wheel or say something profoundly new about grief and trauma, but it manages to be a satisfying experience. It's a "silly" film in its conception, and its VFX might not dazzle, but it's all executed with evident affection and clarity of purpose.
There's a positive and clear message about sensitive matters, wrapped in a somewhat humorous and innocent layer that, with the due warning about "accessible violence", can be appreciated by various ages.
Bryan Fuller reminds us that the monsters under the bed are as real as the pain that feeds them, and that true courage lies not in having no fear, but in finding someone who believes in our truth enough to help us turn on the light."
