      Ben Kenigsberg Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Toddy Burton Austin Chronicle The animation strives for 1950s sci-fi retro, but the result is that everyone looks like a plastic anim doll. Rated: 2/5 Apr 14, 2007 Full Review Stephen Garrett Time Out What might have been a bland Back to the Future rip-off suddenly hums with a screwball sensibility chockablock with singing gangster frogs and evil bowler hats. Rated: 4/6 Apr 7, 2007 Full Review Carson Timar ButteredPopcorn Both one of Disney's most moving and entertaining efforts, the film is one of the rare near-flawless outings for the studio. Dec 26, 2023 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins With innovation, creativity, and heartfelt storytelling, this is solid entertainment for audiences of all ages. Rated: 8/10 Nov 26, 2020 Full Review Sergio Benítez Espinof It's not a big deal, I know, but we can always console ourselves thinking it could have been much worse.

I vividly and fondly recall the moment when the entire family congratulates the protagonist for his failures, standing out as the most emotional and impactful scene for me. This moment encapsulates a powerful lesson: we learn more from our mistakes than our successes. The film presents a refreshing perspective against the criticisms we often face in life, teaching us that making mistakes is okay because they are an essential part of learning. Approaching this experience with a positive attitude, constructive criticism, and sound judgment has the potential to transform us into better versions of ourselves. Conversely, the film's antagonist illustrates the consequences of adopting a negative view of life: ending up feeling like a martyr of society when, in reality, the perspective we choose to face life with defines our path. The lesson "Meet the Robinsons" imparts is invaluable and something I will always carry with me. I hope everyone gets the chance to watch this film, especially children. If they grasp and internalize the message conveyed, both explicitly and implicitly, about how to approach life, this lesson will become a valuable mental asset for their entire existence. Perhaps on a scale from 1 to 10, this movie might only reach a 6 or 7 considering animation and other aspects like the script. However, I give it an 8 for the significant lesson it teaches children. It's a film that leaves you morally uplifted after watching it, and that is priceless and greatly appreciated. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/04/24 Full Review L M Why are mice in Cinderella so adorable and frogs in this movie so pointless? Really astonished to see so many positive reviews. Forgettable, boring, ugly… pick your adjective Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/01/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
