Critic Reviews

Delivers a few pleasant surprises, including a smart story -- a reverse-E.T. riff that plops an American astronaut down in a world of just-like-us-only-green creatures -- and clever characters.Full Review

Entertainment Weekly

Although not bowling me over, Planet 51 is a jolly and good-looking animated feature in glorious 2-D.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

The movie as a whole isn't exactly ground-breaking, and some of the humor tanks. But it has enough action, laughs and candy-hued visuals to satisfy the target audience without plunging grown-ups into despair.Full Review

San Francisco Chronicle

An uninspired computer-animated feature that may satisfy undiscriminating pipsqueaks and nearly no one else, Planet 51 is a low-IQ E.T. in reverse.Full Review

Steven Rea
Philadelphia Inquirer

It's a missed opportunity. The premise is OK enough, even if it is like one of those old "Star Trek" episodes.Full Review
