Critics Consensus

Much like the toys it advertises, Playmobil: The Movie seems sadly destined to be regarded as a superficially similar yet less desirable alternative to the competition.

Roxana Hadadi

Chesapeake Family Magazine

There is a gentleness and simplicity to the adventure-seeking vibe of Playmobil: The Movie that will work particularly well for very young audiences.

Rated: 3/5

Austin Chronicle

This is a vastly inferior toy-to-film IP expansion, with duller songs, dumber jokes, and forgettable voice work.

Rated: 0/5

Sydney Morning Herald

There's a plot in there somewhere, but most of the time it's subsumed by a frenetic attempt to showcase the whole Playmobil range in an extended kinetic eruption of primal sound and primary colour.

Rated: 2/5

Even when you remove the comparisons to The Lego Movie, it’s a redundant tale with little artistic difference to dozens of other films like it. At best the film is a 90 minute distraction, and at worst it’s a cynical marketing ploy.

Rated: 2/5

Filmmakers are working its way down to the very bottom of the toy box with Playmobil: The Movie.

"...great adventures and a heartwarming sibling relationship, it is unable to offer anything past what others have been able to achieve before it."

Maybe I am easy to please. Sure, this box office bomb with terrible reviews by critics is not the original Lego movie. But it follows that idea and this time throws Playmobil characters into all sorts of situations in various worlds, or mixes thereof. The film is entertaining with good voice acting and without major flaws in the story: a good way to get your kiddos interested in Playmobil, if you so desire. BTW, the movie has Anya Taylor-Joy in it, not only as a voice.
