February 15, 2012
A poorly animated, poorly conceived, utterly predictable science fiction adventure without a single shred of originality.
June 02, 2010
"A poorly conceived comedy spotlighting a collection of anal-centric humor that's about as appealing as baseball bat to the face."
November 24, 2009
An uninspired computer-animated feature that may satisfy undiscriminating pipsqueaks and nearly no one else, Planet 51 is a low-IQ E.T. in reverse...
December 17, 2009
A short-sighted assembly of sci-fi references and scatalogical humor that should nonetheless placate undemanding tots ... for ninety minutes or so.

The whole thing is just terrible.
November 24, 2009
This has the directionless, recycled feel of a script by committee.
November 20, 2009
This sharp-looking but unimaginative adventure hasn't the wit of similar kiddie flicks.

Young children and adults with high pain thresholds will enjoy the movie during its brief pause on the way to your On Demand menu.
August 12, 2010
So inane that not only is adult enjoyment unattainable, even younger audiences will be on to its lack of intelligence and novelty.
December 15, 2009
Nothing really gels and Planet 51 just comes across as shrill, rushed and unfunny.
December 04, 2009
There's enough of a storyline here to keep younger space cadets moderately settled.

In terms of animation, Planet 51 is out of this world. Then there's the story and the characters, which are about as dull as a dirty penny.
