Critic Reviews
-
Logan Hill, New York Magazine
Strap yourself in and try not to vomit, because this is more of a theme-park event than a movie -- Pirates of the Caribbean in reverse, a wild ride stripped of its story, down to a rattling series of obvious, underwhelming effects.
-
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
A failed and lifeless experiment in which everything goes wrong.
-
Desson Thomson, Washington Post
A truly satisfying holiday picture, the kind everyone can enjoy, and which may even restore a little lost childhood in many adult viewers.
-
Rex Reed, New York Observer
Without a trace of real live people, you get special effects that are not special, visual talking points without personality, virtual reality that is anything but real.
-
Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune
Faithful to its source but stretches it to the snapping point.
