    Cute..

    Fun film for the very young, but some of the voice work is weak. The story and animation doesn't really stand up to modern animation protocol. It's just adequate compared to Disney/Pixar et al.

    Brilliant!!

    Chose this film to watch with my grandson and loved it!! Great idea and my grandson says it's really funny. And he's right :-). Definitely worth watching again.

    Not too shabby

    I don't understand the hate it was entertaining and touching

    Funny and Engaging

    I went to see this film because I had nothing better to do, but I was really glad that I did go, because it was great! The graphics were good and the characters had strong personalities, in particular the aliens. I was sat next to a kid at the cinema, and he loved it! One thing I should note, though, is that he got very scared at the end when the social worker turned into an alien and started attacking people, so even though it's a kid's film, I'd advise you don't take very young children as they may get scared.

    Not that Bad really!

    I gave this a 10 simply because of all the bad ratings.

    Is this fantastic compared to disney/pixar, hell no, but it hardly deserves to be trashed.

    like GadgetGang in Outer Space (2017) people are failing to see that both movies have a bit of fun and silliness and is suitable for the whole family to enjoy.

    if kids don't laugh at this then i suggest their parents have tainted the kids with action movie BS.

    Let kids be kids and teach them to enjoy being a bit silly every now and then.

    Oh and if you haven't seen GadgetGang in Outer Space (2017), do so, I've watched it 4 times and laughed each time.
