      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Hampered by an unlikable central character and source material stretched too thin to cover its brief running time, The Nut Job will provoke an allergic reaction in all but the least demanding moviegoers.

      Jonathan Romney Observer (UK) Small, undemanding children might find this distracting; small, tree-hopping rodents may be mortally offended. Rated: 1/5 Aug 4, 2014 Full Review Donald Clarke Irish Times The good name of Canadian-South Korean animated co-productions has been sullied forever. Rated: 1/5 Aug 1, 2014 Full Review Olly Richards Empire Magazine Endless wordplay and dumb slapstick do not a rewarding animation make. Pun-ishing. Rated: 2/5 Jul 31, 2014 Full Review Robert Sims Lights Camera Austin Strictly one for the kids, the animated heist flick The Nut Job zips by thanks to its nonstop barrage of family-friendly mayhem. Jan 22, 2022 Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse There is very little joy, almond or otherwise, in The Nut Job. Rated: 1/5 Feb 1, 2021 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com The real problem with the film's vocal work, however, is simply its inconsistency that causes the tone of the film to bounce unconvincingly all over the place.
