Yegor Belikov review from "TASS", remarked the film is an accurate description of Hoffman's "phantasmagoria without fear of getting lost in them, and their dedication inspires respect." The zealous effort put into this work makes "Soyuzmultfilm one of the last studios in the world that would be capable of such large-scale work." Anastasia Ivakhnova of "25 Card", with 4.5 stars remarks the film is Sokolov's magnus opus. The film managed to describe how Hoffman was "so closely intertwined with his fantasies, and soon, despite the apparent external dissimilarity of Ernst and Anselm, it becomes increasingly difficult to distinguish the world of conditional reality from fictional from and to Atlantis". The execution of the concept "is enough to make "Hoffmaniada" take its rightful place among the best animated works of the studio and mark the return of "Soyuzmultfilm" to the big screen."
