"Prone to migraine headaches, I wish the frenzied pace of 'Meet the Robinsons' had been toned down. Still, youngsters will probably love the ride."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Betty Jo Tucker
B-
"Flaws aside, the film accomplishes its mission of entertaining the kids while not completely alienating the parents. And hey, at least it doesn't have penguins."

"
Meet the Robinsons
is a mess, and a sadistically uninspired one at that."
OhmyNews.com
Brian Orndorf
4.5/5
"And to think... this movie might actually get kids interested in science."
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
5/5
"Family movie perfection."

David Cornelius
3/4
"A breath of fresh air after 2006's
The Wild
and 2005's
Chicken Little.

David N. Butterworth
3/4
"...the movie possesses an unusually bright and colorful sense of style that immediately sets it apart from its increasingly plentiful brethren."
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
3/4
"Strikes the right notes as a fast-paced comedy, a touching but not saccharine slice-of-life, and a valuable learning tool for children."
TheMovieBoy.com
Dustin Putman
2/4
"
Meet the Robinsons
isn't soaked in obnoxious pop culture references, but its vision of the future is as safe to the eyes as a Candy Land game board."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
B
"Tries and fails a few times before getting on track and delivering an hour of comedy that ranges from the slapstick to the surreal, accompanied by some good ol' Disney sweetness."

Eric D. Snider
3/4
"A hilarious and adorable science fiction film with great animation, top notch voice work, and sharp humor..."
Cinema Crazed
Felix Vasquez Jr.
2.5/4
"
Meet the Robinsons
an actively spunky futuristic sci-fi showcase...one cannot deny its spry presentation that gives the movie an infectious cheeky charm."
Movie Eye

"Even if you look forward to meeting the Robinsons, after ninety minutes you'll probably be happy to take your leave of them."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
3/4
"A fast paced, high energy offering; it passes by in a breeze and is enjoyable enough that I'm willing to forgive the two awful songs (one near the beginning, one near the end) and recommend it."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
"Features some nice time travel-style twists of the sort that made Back to the Future so popular . . ."
Sci-Fi Movie Page
James O'Ehley
7/10
"Whatever the movie had to go through to become what it is now, it works."
Window to the Movies
Jeffrey Chen
6/10
"...a movie with its heart in the right place and its computers heading off in all different directions."

Movies for the Masses
Joseph Proimakis
"It’s very expensive to take your whole family to the movies these days and this is one movie that you will not feel as if you’ve wasted your money."

Kamal 'The Diva' Larsuel
3.5/5
"
Meet the Robinson
tasted like chicken %u2013
Chicken Little,
that is."
Film School Rejects

C
"The craft of 3-D has come a long way, but with "Meet the Robinsons" it continues its tradition as a gimmick employed on second rate features."
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
3/4
"The film is less a kiddie adventure in a futuristic world than it is an absurdist comedy that looks like a kiddie adventure."
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
B-
"The mantra in
Meet the Robinsons
is 'keep moving forward', but it's in going back to traditional narrative and filmmaking values that helps set this animated romp apart from many of its contemporaries."
Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema
Mark Pfeiffer
6/10
"The pacing of this 3-D animation film is uneven, from slow and sad to madcap, but eventually all is explained and it turns out to be a decent time travel story."

Mark R. Leeper
B+
"Any movie that has a chorus of frogs singing Big Band music and a healthy respect for failure is worth seeing."
Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Nell Minow
3/5
"Suficientemente divertido para funcionar como um ótimo passatempo. E pelo menos representa um mais do que necessário descanso das animações digitais protagonizadas por animais falantes que tomaram conta dos cinemas nos últimos dois anos."
Cinema em Cena
Pablo Villaca
4/5
"So breathlessly exciting, funny and inventive throughout that even if you are only able to see it in its 2-D incarnation, you are still left with an incredibly entertaining film."
eFilmCritic.com
Peter Sobczynski
4/5
"At times hilariously wacky and deeply dramatic, this engaging adventure romp is entertaining from start to finish."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
B-
"Too fluffy to hate, too friendly to condemn, and too sweetly bright not to smile just a little at its antics."
Flipside Movie Emporium
Rob Vaux
C+
"Unremarkable except that it is the first wide release movie in a long time to use a really effective three-dimensional format."
Laramie Movie Scope
Robert Roten
C+
"...more suited to the smaller TV screen and it is only due to the power of 3D technology that the feature is coming to the local multiplex."
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
" Despite its obvious shortcomings,
Meet the Robinsons
left me wanting a little more. It's been a long, long time since a Disney film without a little lamp logo at the beginning has made me feel that way."
Movie Views
Ryan Cracknell
4/5
"A rock-solid piece of animated sci-fi comedy that'll tickle the kids, amuse the parents, and leave everyone walking out of the theater on a sweet little flick-buzz."
Cinematical
Scott Weinberg
5/10
"Frenetic and fanciful - with a confusing "moving forward" plot that encompasses abandonment, adoption, embarrassment and vengeance."

Susan Granger
4/10
"A film of terribly alienating character design (so many pinchy faces and tiny eyes!) blended with very plastic-y backgrounds."
Antagony & Ecstasy
Tim Brayton
3/4
"It's got wit, heart, and razzle-dazzle to spare."
Reel.com
Timothy Knight
2.5/4
"Typical Disney claptrap."
