Derek Adams
There's enough of a storyline here to keep younger space cadets moderately settled.
Nick Schager
It's just an excuse for classic-cinema shout-outs and roller-coaster-like commotion.
Claudia Puig
This has the directionless, recycled feel of a script by committee.
Gary Thompson
An uninspired computer-animated feature that may satisfy undiscriminating pipsqueaks and nearly no one else, Planet 51 is a low-IQ E.T. in reverse...
Ty Burr
Young children and adults with high pain thresholds will enjoy the movie during its brief pause on the way to your On Demand menu.
A.O. Scott
The whole thing is just terrible.

This sharp-looking but unimaginative adventure hasn't the wit of similar kiddie flicks.
User reviews
PIXAR-Grade Entertainment Please don't let the bad ratings of a few deprive you of this flick. It's cute, funny, tasteful and masterfully produced. I promise you that none of the people who gave this film a 1 star rating are capable of making a film themselves. My only gripe is the captions. The timing is off and I can'turn 'em off.
Too expensive Wtf 10$ to buy it? Lols i can watch it for free on funshion.
