Chicago Sun-Times | Roger EbertAdd Critic to Favorites

Like "Finding Nemo," this is a movie that is a joy to behold entirely apart from what it is about. It looks happy, and, more to the point, it looks harmonious.Read the full review

Entertainment Weekly | Owen GleibermanAdd Critic to Favorites

Zippy, enjoyable sci-fi slapstick jamboree.Read the full review

Variety | Joe LeydonAdd Critic to Favorites

It's meant as high praise to say that, very early in Robots, the extraordinary starts to seem perfectly ordinary.Read the full review

Boston Globe | Wesley MorrisAdd Critic to Favorites

Isn't as trippy, scary, handmade-looking, or environmentally aware as some of Miyazaki's pictures. But it shares their dreaminess. Even at its most ingenious, not even Pixar does that.Read the full review

San Francisco Chronicle | Peter HartlaubAdd Critic to Favorites

Robots never stays in the same gear for long, and the abrupt shifts in tone kill the movie's chances of becoming a classic.Read the full review

ReelViews | James BerardinelliAdd Critic to Favorites

Robots is more than a load of spare parts, but there are some sprockets and rivets missing.Read the full review

The Onion (A.V. Club) | Keith PhippsAdd Critic to Favorites

The amiable but thin comedy Robots does have a little more going on, but not quite enough to make a difference, although it looks good enough to distract viewers from that fact for a while.Read the full review

Los Angeles Times | Carina ChocanoAdd Critic to Favorites

The animated tale has flashes of brilliance but seems assembled from cultural flotsam.Read the full review

Washington Post | Desson ThomsonAdd Critic to Favorites

For audiences simply looking for easy entertainment and some neat-looking robots along the way.Read the full review

USA Today | Claudia PuigAdd Critic to Favorites

The voice talent behind Robots reads like a who's who of comic actors...But too much reliance is placed on their star power and not enough on an interesting and fresh idea.Read the full review
