Reviews

Zelos has garnered mixed reviews from critics, with a rating of 7.0/10 on IMDb. While some praised its realistic portrayal of family dynamics and heartfelt performances, others found the storyline predictable and lacking depth. The Hollywood Reporter described it as 'a charming exploration of modern family life' while Variety criticized it for being 'overly formulaic'. Rotten Tomatoes' consensus noted, 'Zelos offers a light-hearted take on the challenges of parenthood, but falls short on originality.' Despite some shortcomings, the film has been commended for its strong emotional core and engaging performances from the cast.
