Philadelphia Inquirer
Graced with unusually expressive and seamless voice work by Drew Barrymore and George Lopez, the best of its kind since "Babe." - 70
The Hollywood Reporter
The picture might not be as fresh and clever as it could have been, but its spirited voice cast delivers the whole enchilada. - 70
