TV Guide Magazine
Instantly forgettable but fun while it lasts, Disney's live-action adaptation of the classic cartoon is an ideal action-adventure thrill ride for kids who may be a little too young for the latest Bond extravaganza. - 30
Variety
By turns frenetic and flat-footed, Mr. Magoo is an uninspired live-action comedy. - 30
Los Angeles Times
Crashingly unimaginative. But its real offense is making such poor use of Nielsen. - 25
San Francisco Chronicle
Only a couple of good gags in its pileup of otherwise lame jokes keep the production from being an unqualified stinker. - 20
Empire
Nielsen's performance is truly dreadful, yet somehow it seems strangely fitting for the movie, which is unlikely even to engage the younger audience for whom it is so obviously intended. When even the outtakes you see over the end titles don't raise a single titter, you know you're in trouble. - 20
The New York Times
Poor old Mr. Magoo should have been allowed to rest in piece. This film suggests that when you loot a crypt, you're likely to find a corpse. - 12
Chicago Sun-Times
Mr. Magoo is transcendently bad. It soars above ordinary badness as the eagle outreaches the fly. There is not a laugh in it. Not one. I counted. - 10
Chicago Reader
If you really hate your kids, pack them off to this slapdash farce, whose only funny moment is the PC disclaimer at the end about the Disney company's humanist concern for blind people (which even literate toddlers will have trouble understanding anyway).
