Though the film as a whole delivers ample thrills, it does lag occasionally and is encumbered by bland voiceovers and a lack of laughs
Top CriticI don't think kids will find it funny, [and] their parents will find it unbearable.
It just didn't come together.
Producer Bruckheimer and...director...Hoyt H. Yeatman Jr. see no stylistic difference between the frenetic derring-do of G-Force and the atmosphere of such Bruckheimer hits as Con Air or The Rock.
If you know a 7-year-old who's still angry he wasn't allowed to see Transformers, G-Force is sure to make him feel better. But other than him, it's hard to say who this abrasive comedy is meant to charm.
A lot of resources went into making G-Force -- a lot of talent, a lot of money, a lot of marketing -- and it doesn't have much to show for it, not even some half-way imaginative 3-D gimmickry.
For its intended audience, G-Force is a winner. Only a shopworn plot keeps it from being a solid seven.
Possibly the first movie to imagine -- in 3D! -- the comedic crime-fighting possibilities of small mammals that usually spend their days on hamster wheels.
Critic: Was there too many poo jokes? 9 y.o.: Mmmm...no.
For older viewers the jokes struggles to find a pay off and the frequent potty humour will even grow tiresome for the younger audience.
...an utterly worthless (and frequently unwatchable) piece of work.
When they're not risking their lives with exciting spy maneuvers, Blaster works out to Lady Gaga and Juarez updates her Facebook page. Okay, so maybe G-Force is just a tad self-consciously 'hip.' [Blu-ray]
Buy this DVD for your kid this Christmas%u2026because Zach Galifianakis wasn't in enough movies this year.
The voice actors are accomplished but the fussy story is strictly for the tykes and teens, even if the writers work in a sexy tease in gopher fur, that tramp.
This Blu-Ray disc is the droppings left behind by those guinea pigs . . .
It is suitable for kids, and parents won't have to suffer much if they accompany the kids.

The joke of cute animals hacking into mainframes and dodging explosions may not be enough to sustain a movie.
