Critics Consensus

The Peanuts Movie offers a colorful gateway into the world of its classic characters and a sweetly nostalgic -- if relatively unambitious -- treat for the adults who grew up with them.

To paraphrase a speech made once upon a time in a pumpkin patch, there's no hypocrisy to be found in any of this, just sincerity, pretty much as far as the eye can see.

Rated: 3.5/4

Lou Lumenick

New York Post

Rendering the Red Baron-fighting Snoopy and way too many supporting characters in 3-D, and placing them in near-photo-realistic backgrounds, drains much of the charm from "The Peanuts Movie."

Rated: 2/4

This animation led by his eldest son Craig and his grandson Bryan, tells a new adventure that in a way brings together several of the stories that we have seen before, but in an updated way.The main essence of its original is maintained: human values...

Rated: 10/10

The Peanuts Movie celebrates well-known character quirks, but it completely trashes the spirit of the strip. An unavoidable necessity? I’m forced to conclude this is perhaps the case, but it’s still infuriating.

Keith & the Movies

“The Peanuts Movie” clings to an almost-forgotten vision of childhood. It’s sad to think of that way, but you can’t help but wonder. For that reason alone the Peanuts are a precious commodity to be cherished.

Rated: 4/5

I consider The Peanuts Movie to be a remarkable tribute to Charles M. Schultz’s work as a simple feature-length updated Peanuts episode without some grand adventure but instead just another ordinary day carried on with the well-known characters and their well known interaction’s. This movie will deeply resonate with Peanuts fans, including myself as it continuously offers its heartwarming Charlie Brown life lessons, along with Snoopy and Woodstock comedic cutaways and remains an enjoyable experience for audiences of all ages in today’s modern world.

This movie is so good! From the animation style to the story to it's comedy to the relatable character of Charlie Brown. This is a really good adaptation of the comics. One of my favorite movies of all time!

The Peanuts is a beautifully animated blend of old nostalgic animation of the news paper comic meets modern 3D computer style. Smart, witty and funny, well casted kids as voice actors who exceed expectations indeed. The Shultz family with Steve Martino as a director for this animated movie crafted a great representation of their legacy and why we enjoy Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the rest of his friends.
