Empire Magazine Rated: 3/5 Dec 30, 2006 Full Review Jason Best BBC.com Ten-year-old boys will probably find "Thunderpants" the funniest film imaginable. Most viewers whose playground days are behind them, however, will turn up their noses at a comedy adventure about a boy with uncontrollable flatulence. Rated: 2/5 May 6, 2002 Full Review Tom Cassidy Common Sense Media Fart jokes galore in warmhearted kids fantasy adventure. Rated: 4/5 Aug 21, 2020 Full Review Urban Cinefile Critics Urban Cinefile Farting is the equaliser of the world, as we know, but as a subject for film, farting offers many traps. Less so, however, if the film is honest and is aimed at a smart audience of 8 - 12 year olds, who understand the true humanising value of a fart. Dec 8, 2002 Full Review Matthew Turner ViewLondon Rated: 3/5 Oct 30, 2002 Full Review Ian Mantgani UK Critic This movie should be shown in prisons so that inmates have a good reason to never return.

Dimitra M It took us a while to find this film online to stream, but it was well worth the search. This is the best movie ever. Way ahead of its time. It is a shame that the main actor did not have a successful career as he was excellent. There are some big names that play in this movie which is quite impressive. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/24 Full Review Audience Member Cried, when he farted. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review rafael z The worst crap I've ever seen. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Just turn it off and never put it on again. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Really poggers best film ever. Love the farts lol Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a movie about a boy with a disability that, even though he is persecuted by school mates, family and so-called friends that offer him help and lie, he rises above it and accomplishes his dream, all because of friendship. A must see in my opinion pow Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
