Critics Consensus

Unimaginative and unfunny, this tale of barnyard mischief borders on 'udder' creepiness and adds little to this summer's repertoire of animated films.

The laughs subside near the end as the requisite moral kicks in, but this is still that rare kids' movie I'd recommend to parents and nonparents alike.

The overall feeling I had leaving Barnyard was one of feeling genuinely creeped out.

A re-hash of tired cliches and CGI effects.

Criminal acts and scenes of brutal violence spoil the effect of "Barnyard" as an animated movie for tots.

This movie scarred me as a kid. Completely unfunny and unoriginal, and that's saying something for a 2006 film. Animations were not of the best. You're lucky I even gave this half a star.
