Critics Consensus

Arthur wastes its big-name voice talent on a predictable script and substandard CG animation.

What a strange film. They talk so quickly that it is often hard to tell what they are saying. This becomes annoying at times and sometimes you give up. You get the core story without needing to know what they are saying all the time. The CGI animation sections are quite ugly. The real world looks nice though. There are some jokes that only adults would get and some may deem as inappropriate. There isn't a lot of comedy or action and there is one really long scene of exposition but otherwise ambles along talking fast. If it wasn't for the ride at Europa Park then I would have never heard of this film and maybe that is for the best. Shame that such an excellent ride didn't have a better film to accompany it. Certainly not the worst film and it has enough to get you to the end but not enough to make you want to see it again or watch any of the sequels.

In a year when a lot of big-screen animation felt like it came rolling off the video game assembly line, a little originality goes a long way.

Time Out

A lazy fairy-tale pastiche reveling in mite-size cherubs, which cribs from gnomic mythology, elvish lore, Harry Potter, Arthurian legend and can't-pay-the-rent melodrama.

Rated: 2/6

Behind The Lens

Cute enough and cool enough at times that I would take all four of my nephews to see it, but minimal cute and cool isn't enough for the long haul.

The List

Strangely, for a feature animation aimed at a younger audience, Arthur and the Invisibles is most entertaining in its live-action sequences.

Rated: 3/5

Unquestionably original, watching Arthur and the Invisibles frequently feels like sitting in on an elaborate video game.
