Critics Consensus

Monster Family promises a family-friendly animated monster mash, but succeeds only in delivering a viewing experience so lackluster that parents may find it genuinely frightening.

4/10. 45/100. | Was it just me, or is half this movie supposed to be originally in a different language from English? Half the time it seemed dubbed.

Umas das piores animações que já assisti, sem graça, enredo horrível e tedioso e nenhum personagem chega a ser bom.

As somebody who is of the target audience, not even I could enjoy this film. It's a production that wreaks of abhorrent voice acting, repulsive character design, and terrible storytelling. Additionally, its whole existence, in my opinion, is to be a mock buster of a fundamentally better movie; Hotel Transylvania. Please, if you plan to watch this horrid motion picture, heed my warning - Happy Family is an unsatisfactory mess. Do not watch it.

It was brave of the producers to hire a co-writer called Catharina Junk.

Derivative, barrel-scraping "family animation" at its worst.

Guardian

The whole thing is exhausting, with too much slapstick, too few decent laughs and a care-y share-y message of family togetherness.

Rated: 2/5

Messy, confusing animated monster tale has violence.

James Croot

Stuff.co.nz

Narrative logic leaps scupper story coherence, while the Tom Jones-loving Drac... seems like he's in a different movie to all the other characters.

Rated: 2.5/5

The Mail on Sunday (UK)

With editing, pacing and screenplay all misfiring, it gets odder and less enjoyable.
