Review of Planes (2012)

By David Berry (137) for National Post (1,405) on 08 Aug 2013

It's less a movie than a 92-minute bet that children will be amused by/willing to purchase anything with googly eyes slapped on it…

Planes isn't going to join the pantheon of great animated Disney movies, but when it comes to light entertainment, it takes off smoothly, glides…

Review of Planes (2012)

By Mark Dujsik (2,093) for Mark Reviews Movies (2,037) on 08 Aug 2013

Planes is tiring spin-off that's stretching to copy the charm of material that was lacking it in the first place…

Review of Planes (2012)

By Steven D. Greydanus (674) for National Catholic Register (119) on 08 Aug 2013

While I'm not sure it needs a theatrical release, I'm struck by the rarity of seeing such a comparatively simple, innocent cartoon on the big screen…

Planes is good enough, and may fly at the boxoffice, but it does not soar to the heavens…

Review of Planes (2012)

By Bob Bloom (1,124) for Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) (1,017) on 07 Aug 2013

Everything in Planes is predictable and formulaic. The characters representing the planes of various nations are all basic stereotypes…

The modest ambitions for this movie are refreshing in a summer of over-plotted movies for kids…

Review of Planes (2012)

By Teddy Durgin (233) for Screen It! (1,437) on 07 Aug 2013

The clichés just pile up and there is little attempt made to deviate from formula. (Full Parental Review also available)…

Review of Planes (2012)

By Neil Genzlinger (512) for New York Times (5,786) on 07 Aug 2013

Planes is for the most part content to imitate rather than innovate, presumably hoping to reap a respectable fraction of the box office numbers…

Review of Planes (2012)

By Claudia Puig (2,080) for USA Today (4,117) on 07 Aug 2013

It's engaging enough, driving home the familiar message of following one's dreams and the less hackneyed theme of facing one's fears…

Review of Planes (2012)

By Michael Sragow (1,413) for Orange County Register (218) on 07 Aug 2013

A zippy little programmer designed to exploit the same vehicles-as-people formula as the Cars franchise…

Review of Planes (2012)

By Bruce Demara (410) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 07 Aug 2013

While the plotting is rather pedestrian, the humour mostly lame, what makes Planes a stand-out experience - not surprisingly, based on Disney's…

Review of Planes (2012)

By Lou Lumenick (2,103) for New York Post (6,650) on 07 Aug 2013

Often less really is more, and that’s why I can recommend Planes, a charmingly modest low-budget spin-off from Pixar’s “Cars’’ that…
