Gary Baseman's Emmy-winning cartoon series arrives on the big screen in a delightful blast of bold drawing, brainy humor, and hard-charging songs. Full Review |

|
|
May not be a Disney classic, but it's certainly unique enough to warrant at least a rental, if not a spot in the permanent library. Full Review |

3/4 |
If nothing else inventive, at the very least perverse, and at moments transcendently bizarre. Full Review |

|
3/5 |
Disney's Teacher's Pet is a zippy animated feature with some clever musical numbers about a dog who wants to be a boy. Full Review |

Delightful, giggle-inducing movie that will amuse kids with its quirky drawing style and outlandish action, while entertaining their parents with fast-paced, clever dialogue. Full Review |

As CGI cartooning takes over the world Teacher's Pet finds a fresh and frisky approach to doing things the old, Walt way. Full Review |

1.5/5 |

What the film lacks in graphic sophistication it makes up for in visual imagination, especially in several exuberant musical numbers. Full Review |

3.5/5 |
A fine, smart, wickedly funny family film. Full Review |
||
|
2/4 |
Occasionally clever, but unworthy of being the swan song of Disney's hand-drawn animation department. Too loud, screeching and annoying. Full Review |

The standard I-gotta-be-me theme and Broadway-show packaging of Disney’s animated output gets a snarky makeover... Full Review |
||
|
4/5 |
Fast, fresh, frenetic...Teacher’s Pet is a great way to spend seventy-odd minutes -- whether or not you’ve got kids in tow. Full Review |

At home, the movie will probably play like the pleasantly dull video babysitter it is. As a big-screen feature, however, it just feels superfluous. Full Review |

|
2.5/4 |
While Teacher's Pet lacks big-budget majesty, it has humor and heart. Full Review |
