    Not a Rreview/Late Post:

    Reminds me of Jimmy Neutron for some reason. I cant believe how many people actually rated this so low when its got a very good moral lesson for everyone. Now I know where that singing frog was ta
    ...( read more)ken from. I never even figgured out who voiced who in this film. Even though this is a kiddie/family film, I actually liked it.

    Funny, cute and quite like Back to the Future except it is animated.... A very entertaining Disney film and the animation is stellar.

    actually thought this was very cute. I was surprised.

    Not your typical family animation. This movie was going down the drain for a good hour before it came to life. The final 30 minutes are what make this worth seeing. Most of the film is so scatterbrained and farfetched I didn't know why I was watching it. In the end the story ...( read more)finally comes together and is actually good. It's tough to overlook an hour on nonesense and mediocre animation though. Unique and open minds will probably apprecaite this a lot more.

    In the spirit of this being a kids film I'll ignore all the crap about time travel. This is highly inventive and rather hilarious. Nice character designs and a rather moving story even if it is quite sentimental. The animation is quite low in quality when compared to Pixar but it...( read more) still serves the story well.

    I always enjoy Disney movies and this one doesn't disappoint. I always feel like a kid again when I watch these type of movies, it's like an escape from real life. The movie starts out with a whiz kid who is trying to invent a machine that can view the memories stored in the huma...( read more)n brain so he can find his mom that dropped him off at an orphanage door when he was born. It takes off from there and I'd rather not spoil anymore of the plot. It's very adventurous and fun, definitely a feel good movie.

    GREAT movie.....If your a little kid

    If you think your family's different, wait 'til you meet the family of the future.

    Enjoyable. I really like this film especially the family itself. I really adored the FAMILY! I CAN'T PUT IT IN WORDS! The characters complimented each other. The character design rea...( read more)lly ROCKS!.

    Meet the Robinsons is something that everyone will enjoy. Disney proved that they can do what other can do. They ventured on a whole new world of animation. When it comes to the story, I think it is a bit complex for kids. But for me, I understood it but I was confuse at some parts until the end. The animation is just okay. They were not able to match the greatness of Pixar but at least they have something to "say" about the animation.

    If there is something that the film would signify it is to believe in your own capability. To surpass what you think is impossible to yourself. Like Lewis did, he believed in himself and eventually succeeded.

    just before you decide that you might like to watch this film, realise that it's aimed squarely at kids. there is literally no food for thought or bits of humour for the adults, so dont even hope that you'll like it if you're in that mindset. however, if you're in the mood to sit...( read more) down, switch off and watch something visually stimulating and sort of funny, this is a great film. just don't be looking for anything groundbreaking here.

    Defining Scene:
    The T-Rex attack, absolutely inspired. everyone say it, althogether, "I have a big head, an little arms!" Gold.

Critic Reviews

A.O. Scott, The New York Times

Meet the Robinsons is surely one of the worst theatrically released animated features issued under the Disney label in quite some time.

March 30, 2007
Claudia Puig, USA Today

The movie is inventive and fun with a significant message that manages not to be overbearing. There are some heart-tugging -- but not sappy -- moments. full review

March 30, 2007
Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

A 3-D fantasy that's lovely to look at but less than delightful to know. It's insistently, relentlessly busy. full review

March 30, 2007
Pete Hammond, Maxim

Grab a 10 year old, your 3D glasses and experience what these filmmakers certainly hope is the next dimension of interactive family entertainment. full review

March 30, 2007
Ty Burr, Boston Globe

Almost as funny as it is hyperactive, the new computer-animated family comedy is luscious to look at and as fizzy as a can of soda popped open in your face. full review

March 29, 2007
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

Simply put, it's terrific. full review
