"Fast-paced with nary a dull moment, Herbie:Fully Loaded is a fitting comeback for the magical Love Bug."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  Betty Jo Tucker

B-
"It's formula with a capital F, but the high-energy ridiculousness propels it to victory."  FromTheBalcony  Bill Clark

B
"Herbie: Fully Loaded is a solid bit of wacky fun that reintroduces the franchise back onto solid ground."  FilmJerk.com  Brian Orndorf

"But for all this pretense toward plot, really, Herbie's point is NASCAR and commercial tie-ins."  PopMatters  Cynthia Fuchs

3/4
"Lindsay, pre-drugs."  rec.arts.movies.reviews  David N. Butterworth

2/4
"...a thoroughly innocuous piece of work..."  Reel Film Reviews  David Nusair

2.5/4
"Zippy, brightly-colored fun. The film flies right by at such a stylish clip that the viewer hardly has time to realize how very slight the whole thing is."  TheMovieBoy.com  Dustin Putman

C+
"Harmless, witless, unoriginal, uninventive, mildly entertaining and not liable to do any permanent damage to anyone who watches it."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

2/4
"Aside from one unintentionally hilarious dialogue scene involving giving up & Herbie squirting a load all over Lohan’s chest, it's about as innocuous as family fare can get."  eFilmCritic.com  Erik Childress

D-
"A rotten, stupid film, without a hint of cleverness or imagination."  Film Blather  Eugene Novikov

C
"One time too many around the track...a mishmash of slapstick, action, romance, domestic comedy and feel-good feminist fantasy."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

2.5/4
"I suppose there are worse ways to spend a summer evening than in the company of this cast and the R2D2-like automobile, but hasn't the day of Herbie come and gone?"  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

3/5
"Revamped car-is-the-star franchise will appeal to kids, even if it won't go the distance for their parents."  Netflix  James Rocchi

6/10
"If you're not asking much from it, Fully Loaded can be a decently fun movie; it's otherwise a harmless and unremarkable kids' flick."  Window to the Movies  Jeffrey Chen

"Though it seems like a betrayal of their more avant-garde comedy backgrounds, you can’t say they’re prostituting their talent. They aren’t using it at all."  Pajiba  Jeremy C. Fox

62/100
"Will never become as classic and as fondly-remembered as the original, but for Disney's youth branch it's a step in the right direction."  FilmFocus  Joe Utichi

5/10
"...exactly what we can count on from a Disney comedy these days--weightless, nonabrasive entertainment, appealing mainly to the youngest of children."  DVDTown.com  John J. Puccio

"Lohan has a license to drive this franchise back into the hearts of kids everywhere."  Light Views  John Larsen

3/10
"There’s a lot of PG-13 jiggling."  Planet Sick-Boy  Jon Popick

3/4
"Una muy agradable sorpresa veraniega que bien vale la pena disfrutar con la familia, con una buena bolsa de palomitas y, lo más importante, con alma de niño"  Moviola  Jorge Avila Andrade

3/5
"Here’s my theory... Lohan actually died several months ago in a late-night partying incident and she’s been replaced by a sophisticated robot."  7M Pictures  Kevin Carr

"For a movie about a car that’s alive, there’s a lot that’s dead here..."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

2/4
"Why anyone thought it was time for Herbie to make a comeback is beyond me, but here he is."  Aisle Seat  Mike McGranaghan

B-
"Herbie gives by far the most endearing and convincing performance in the film. We love Herbie because he has a heart and soul. The movie has neither. "  Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies  Nell Minow

1.5/4
"No amount of anti-jiggle CG work can fully diffuse the sexual undertones racing beneath the cute and cuddly hood of this modern update of the kid-friendly 1970s series. "  Slant Magazine  Nick Schager

3/5
"A grande força deste longa reside no charme de Herbie. Lohan pode até ser uma atriz renomada da atualidade, mas aqui serve como mera coadjuvante de luxo para o veterano 53."  Cinema em Cena  Pablo Villaca

2/4
"It accomplishes what it sets out to do, which is to distract the children of America from the horror of their eventual futures for a couple more hours."  Film Threat  Pete Vonder Haar

3.5/5
"Yes, it's silly, but it's also thoroughly engaging."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

2.5/5
"Brainless but painless"  Filmcritic.com  Sean O'Connell

7/10
"A new generation has the joy of watching this amusing anthropomorphic auto."  Modamag.com  Susan Granger

2.5/4
"An above-average family film that's just winning enough to entertain both the grown-ups and the kids."  Reel.com  Timothy Knight
