Critics Consensus

A would-be franchise-starter that will anger fans of the source material and leave newcomers befuddled, Artemis Fowl is frustratingly flightless.

1/5

Lots of things happen but nothing unfolds. It's like watching a feature-length trailer for a film that doesn't exist.

The mischievous glint in [Judi Dench]'s eyes is Artemis Fowl's only nod to irony and self-awareness.

2.5/5

A sense of indecision hangs over the whole exercise, starting with the screenplay, which has four names attached. Nobody seems to know how funny they're meant to be.

While Artemis Fowl, Jr. (Ferdia Shaw) does say those exact words—“I’m a criminal mastermind”—at the end of the film, there is nothing in the movie that explains why Artemis might think that or why the audience should believe him.

One of the worst feature films Disney has ever created. As much as it hurts me to write this, Ferdia Shaw delivers one of the worst young performances I’ve ever witnessed, but the embarrassment is shared by everyone involved in this atrocious mess.

A fruitless franchise launch for a series I doubt we will ever see again.

It's horrible insult to the source material. The acting was atrocious and the casting choices hardly fit the source characters. In all honesty you could change the title and character names and I might not even know it was based off of the book series. Absolute trash

This is the best movie I have ever seen. Disney finally did a good job with doing fantasy in their movies. The acting, the effects, all of it was absolutely thrilling and stunning. Best movie ever 10/10 would definitely recommend.
