Shoddy, brainless, pre-sold kids' entertainment. Read full review

A hyperactive hodgepodge. Read full review

New York PostLou Lumenick
After the monster is subdued, then there's a much less humorous, and more mindlessly violent second half.

Charlotte ObserverLawrence Toppman
A frenzied, cacophonic cartoon. Read full review

TNT RoughCutDarrius Pelissier
If you give it half a chance, it will entertain you.

None of the movie's abundant humor is better than faintly amusing.

Voice work is weirdly awful and funny at the same time. Read full review

Boston GlobeLoren King
A video game barely disguised as a movie. Violent, and the monsters are scary for younger children.

Baltimore SunCheryl Lu-Lien Tan
Stay away from this movie. Brainless cartoonish violence.

Washington PostStephen Hunter
So twitchy, fidgety, skittery and wiggly that the drug it made me yearn for was Dramamine, followed by a chaser of bourbon, 12 years old. Read full review
