Critics Consensus

The animated portion of Osmosis is zippy and fun, but the live-action portion is lethargic.

Don't like the pacing, Bill Murray is kind of an idiot, The Animation is good, The Adult Jokes and Gross humor made me unfortable. The Relationships are fine. It's a fine movie.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Great movie with a fun plot. Some amazing science jokes. A lot will go over your kids heads as far the science jokes go, but they are great.

A few times I see this, it does feel like a guilty pleasure of a movie along with several others. Not great, but not a terrible movie as this movie goes mainly for kids. A good performance, humor being hit-or-miss, an okay story and even a badass villain. 6/10

Watched when I was young but can't forget until now! The effects and topics are both good enough for that time, also contains some good knowledge about your body and illness. Definitely recommend

Mostly animated PG film has gross-out humor, violence.

Rated: 3/5

Time Out

The plot's so much old rote, and the characters have all the personality of protoplasm; but the anthropomorphising of this microcosmic metropolis is wonderfully imaginative, and the dialogue decidedly spiffy.

The ideas are there, hints of genius, but no one ignites them.

Rated: 2/5

Double Toasted

It sometimes lets its imagination cut loose in a fun way. But a lot of the movie is just puns, body humor, jokes...but some of the parts, they do very well with it...
