The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckAug 7, 2025
Although its very R-rated humor inevitably starts to wear thin during the course of its feature-length run time, Fixed manages the neat trick of injecting some genuine heart into its nonstop offensiveness. Read full review

IGNRafael MotamayorJun 11, 2025
The slapstick comedy works wonders, and stands in stark contrast to the endless pop culture-based animated comedies of the past 20 years. But it's the heart at the center of the movie – the dynamic between the dogs played by the likes of Adam DeVine, Idris Elba, Kathryn Hahn – that sells the story and makes this more than a one-joke movie.

Just like the dog it’s about, Fixed has plenty of balls, but its big heart is what really matters. Read full review

Screen RantAlex HarrisonAug 13, 2025
Fixed is fun while it lasts, more so than you might expect going in. Its most lasting effect on me might be a longing for more traditional, hand-drawn, 2D animation from our major studios, and anyone who might feel similarly shouldn't let this movie pass them by. Read full review

The GuardianRadheyan SimonpillaiAug 13, 2025
Fixed gets as much mileage as it can out of gags that largely centre on Bull’s gonads, with its entire narrative built around a wild night out when he discovers his owner’s plan to finally give him the snip. But that humour, and its shock value, wears thin in less time than it takes for Bull to satisfy his urges. Read full review

VarietyPeter DebrugeJun 11, 2025
Sacrificing good taste in pursuit of the higher goal — which could be described as joining “Fritz the Cat” in animated infamy — Tartakovsky and co-writer Jon Vitti (a veteran of “Saturday Night Live” and “The Simpsons”) make no apologies for the project’s obscene sense of humor. Read full review

The film’s intermittent charms come thanks to some of the voice actors. Read full review

The New York TimesBrandon YuAug 13, 2025
The film can’t quite fill in much beyond its initial wacky conceit, lacking the extra narrative and comedic pieces to match, for better or worse, a counterpart like “Sausage Party,” Seth Rogen’s own bawdy animation entry. Read full review

ColliderAidan KelleyAug 13, 2025
Fixed has the stylish hand-drawn animation that Genndy Tartakovsky is so well-known for, but the juvenile humor feels beneath a filmmaker of his stature. Read full review

Slant MagazineSteven ScaifeAug 7, 2025
The balls-out shock value doesn’t detract from the fact that Fixed is more square than its makers probably think it is. Read full review

Desperation destroys comic timing, and this thing is drenched in the flop sweat of a stand-up comedian who knows he’s losing his audience. Read full review

Rolling StoneDavid FearAug 13, 2025
Fixed should have been, by any measure, the fix we needed in terms of balls-out hilarity about neurotic, sex-crazed creatures, or even just a parable from an animation godhead about humans being just as beholden to animal instincts as our four-legged friends. Instead, we get a wildly uneven, totally obvious, and often painfully unfunny 80 minutes. Read full review
