L.A. Weekly
This whole movie is fun, and smart too, a fitting tribute to Jay Ward's original cartoons. - 50
Entertainment Weekly
The balance of inspired idiocy to hackneyed buffoonery is out of whack. - 50
San Francisco Examiner
The needle on the laugh-o-meter barely budges. - 50
Boston Globe
Never gets horribly bad, but can't sustain its moments of inspiration either. - 40
Film.com
As flat as the brim of a Mountie hat. - 40
Salon
Enough flickers of Jay Ward's gloriously subversive sensibility to make it watchable, but it also has enough lengthy stretches of pure triteness to make it easy to skip altogether. - 40
TV Guide Magazine
The plot is Kate-Moss thin. Basically agreeable stuff, but not much more. And that's a shame. - 35
TNT RoughCut
Follows the current trend of once-popular cartoons turned into mediocre live-action incarnations.
