Critic Reviews

  • Jane Horwitz, Washington Post

    A welcome slice of pie in the face.

  • Pam Sitt, Seattle Times

    The movie is nothing if not predictable.

  • Jan Stuart, Newsday

    Exactly which children Disney hopes to captivate with Keeble's Big Movea little unclear.

  • Jonathan Foreman, New York Post

    Bland, occasionally funny Disney comedy about a wayward seventh-grader.

  • Cody Clark, Mr. Showbiz

    If there's no way to avoid seeing Keeble's Big Move, take along a book, ideally a hefty one. With the proper arm speed and angle of release, you can probably nail the projectionist.

    For sure a movie for kids. Does show you that you shouldn't burn bridges though.

    It was just good! That's all!

    Max Keeble should've been a few years older, the movie would've appealed to a much larger audience. Although I think they were targeting the unfortunately titled 'pre-teens.' Decent kids movie.
