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. Go to Full Review Lou Lumenick New York Post 06/20/2016
2/4
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." Go to Full Review Tara Brady Irish Times 04/21/2016

The animation incorporates contemporary techniques but maintains the classic aesthetic: soft colors, lines reminiscent of comics, and a movement logic that preserves the rhythm of the original drawings. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Denise Pieniazek A Sala Llena (Argentina) 01/14/2024

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...

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. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Stephen C @bob25009 Apr 3 The worldwide gross is $246,200,000.00 over a budget of $99,000,000.00. See more Tayina D. @KPOPDEMONHUNTRESS2007 Jan 10 As a lifelong Peanuts fan, I was blown away by how much heart this movie has. It stays perfectly true to the spirit of the original comic strips while introducing a gorgeous new animation style. It’s a touching, nostalgic masterpiece that reminded me exactly why I fell in love with Charlie Brown and the gang in the first place. A must-watch for fans of all ages! I went into this with high expectations, and I was truly touched. The creators clearly respected the source material—everything from the "wah-wah" adult voices to the classic Vince Guaraldi themes was spot on. It captures Charlie Brown’s quiet resilience in a way that feels authentic and modern without losing its soul. I was amazed by how emotional the journey was. Good grief, it’s perfect! This is exactly how a reboot should be done. The 3D animation manages to look just like the hand-drawn art we grew up with, and the story is pure Peanuts. As a die-hard fan, seeing Snoopy and Charlie Brown on the big screen like this was a dream come true. It’s sweet, funny, and deeply moving.
