"This is a film made to babysit kids for 80 minutes during the summer months, and shouldn't be regarded as anything more."

Brian Orndorf
2/5
"With 'Barnyard,' the androgynous udders, as annoying as they can be, are about the only original thing to be found in the whole movie."

Dan Lybarger
1/5
"Forget the confusion of the he-cows that populate the film; the real problem is that
Barnyard
is just a lousy, lousy movie."

David Cornelius
1.5/4
"This is the most dubious animation since Robert Zemeckis's creepy
The Polar Express
, only uglier, lazier, and with a more indisputable racist streak."

"So, you know, it's fine. It's nothing special."

"Gary Larson did more with this idea in a single
Far Side
panel than Steve Oedekerk and his army of animators can muster over eighty minutes in this tepid computer-generated kidflick."

3/5
"A beatifully animated simple but fun plot, carries enough giggles for all age groups."
Movies for the Masses
Joseph Proimakis
1.5/5
"
Barnyard
is brought to us by the same comedic genius that made
Kung Pow: Enter the Fist
. Use that as your personal gauge about how good (or bad) this movie will be."

Kevin Carr
C
"... an odd mix of coming of age film and an animated
Babe
where bulls wag exaggerated udders along with their feminine counterparts."
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
"Ugh. I need a shower -- I want to be hosed down. This is not the feeling you generally want to be left with after seeing a children’s movie."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
2/4
"That the lead character is a 'male cow' complete with udders shows how confused the picture is."
Mr. Brown's Movies
Michael Dequina
2/5
"
Barnyard
isn't a complete waste of time, it's just too familiar."
Film Threat
Michael Ferraro
2.5/4
"All the cows have udders - even the male ones. In real life, only female cows have udders. What kind of sick, alternate cow universe does this movie take place in anyway?"
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
1.5/5
"The design is uninteresting, the characters are bland and the story is terrible."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
C
"Relatively unfunny comedy about barnyard animals. It is notable mainly for its anatomically incorrect portrayal of bulls with udders."
Laramie Movie Scope
Robert Roten
2/5
"The animation is perfectly colorful and the voice actors earn their paychecks, but it's blatantly obvious that this thing started production without a screenplay -- and hit the screens without a plot."
DVDTalk.com
Scott Weinberg
2/4
"[T]he culture of juvenile pranks and misdemeanors and a nightly hoedown that combines a Vegas casino and a cattle-town country bar is more appropriate for older kids..."
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Sean Axmaker
1.5/4
"A
Lion King
clone that's tailored to the Fisher-Price crowd."
Filmcritic.com
Sean O'Connell
1.5/4
"There's barely enough of a story to sustain a short film, much less a feature."
