Critical response
As opposed to the original film, which was met with acclaim, Through the Windmill, Again received negative reviews for it's direction, writing and dialogue, but the animation and some of the voice performances (especially from Marano) received some praise. The review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes reports that 13% of critics gave the film a positive review based on 183 reviews, with an average score of 3.5/10. The site's consensus states: "The Bradley Raymond-penned follow-up to Reloaxa's crime horror lacks the dark, compelling direction of the original and ends up being unfunny, bland and confusing." Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 from top reviews from mainstream critics, calculated a score of 24 based on 41 reviews, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews." In CinemaScore polls, cinema audiences gave Weird World an average score of "C" on an A+ to F scale.
