B+
"It's a hodgepodge of spills, pranks, and wide-eyed reaction shots, sold with Feig's fine-tuned, Hughesian comedic voice."  OhmyNews.com  Brian Orndorf

"Why is the Christmas message in "family movies" repeatedly reduced to splats, farts, bruises, and winky-wink sex jokes?"  PopMatters  Cynthia Fuchs

3/5
"Feig's sympathies toward young misfits are still thankfully evident, but the mature, realistic approach that made 'Freaks and Geeks' so refreshing is missing here."  eFilmCritic.com  Dan Lybarger

4.5/5
"Unexpectedly warm and huggable, and far funnier than you'd ever guess... one of the wittiest, most endearing holiday films in recent memory."  DVDTalk.com  David Cornelius

2/4
"Sputters to the end credits on autopilot."  TheMovieBoy.com  Dustin Putman

2/4
"The film has an excellent pedigree, but when it poops it stinks of a Tim Allen movie."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

B-
"If Feig is working below his usual cleverness level here, at least he and the kids seem to be having fun doing it."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

D+
"Brash, annoying juvenile slapstick comedy...Once word gets around, these Minors probably won't be as much unaccompanied as unattended."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

1/4
"a 90-minute succession of jokes, set pieces and false sentiment that, unless you're extremely young or undiscerning, has a distinctly been-there-done-that whiff about it."  Boxoffice Magazine  Jay Antani

3/10
"The kids in the film behave badly. The adults behave worse."  DVDTown.com  John J. Puccio

2.5/4
"There isn't an original moment in the mix, but it's not as crass or vulgar as much of what passes for 'family friendly' entertainment, and it keeps the precocious pop-culture references to a blessed minimum."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

C+
"It's The Breakfast Club for middle schoolers with slightly lower-grade angst and a less memorable soundtrack."  Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies  Nell Minow

1/5
"Produzido para funcionar como comédia leve e divertida, Menores Desacompanhados só conseguiu me deixar de mau humor."  Cinema em Cena  Pablo Villaca

2/5
"This romp just isn't funny or original enough to become a holiday classic. Although the solid cast makes it watchable."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

C+
"... moves the film along with a modicum of snap and manages to keep the kids' performances from sliding into complete sentimental mush, if only barely."  Seattle Post-Intelligencer  Sean Axmaker

2/10
"Tedious at 89 minutes, the entire concept could be subtitled: The Joy of Vandalism. It's a terminally boring layover."  www.susangranger.com  Susan Granger

0/4
"Why, and at what point, did Feig choose to ally himself with the bullies of the world and substitute broad stereotype for insight into character?"  Film Freak Central  Walter Chaw
