Just like the cardboard books we read in kindergarten: short, sweet and easy to sit through.

It's not dreadful, just dull.

Some children might find Clifford’s tale on the tame side, but at least as many parents will be happily surprised by the warm and cuddly tone.
04/30/04
Despite the movie's rather unoriginal story -- that age-old plot about running off to the join the circus -- at least the filmmakers have created something which, though a little bland, is never crass or vulgar.
04/23/04
The movie is tamer than tame in every respect, which makes it great for little kids, if not for the grownups who bring them.

Unlike television cartoons that sell their souls to make the leap to the big screen, this animated G-rated film is faithful to Norman Bridwell's beloved book series about the big red dog.

Top CriticJust okay. My kids enjoyed it, although my daughter said she wouldn't mind not seeing it again.

Top CriticShould delight most four-year-olds and won't torture parents (much) in the process.

Belies its name with its formulaic storytelling and lackluster animation.

Trades in easygoing humor to peddle its message of bigheartedness.
04/22/04
The messages are honest and not slathered. The characters are kind, amusing and, by now, quite familiar (author Norman Birdwell created Clifford and friends some 40 years ago).
04/23/04
Though not exactly a gripping experience for adults, parents have reason to be grateful for a movie that has been so carefully tailored to preschool to first-grade sensibilities.
04/22/04
Top CriticThe limited animation style looks static on the big screen and the movie is too long for its age group even at 75 minutes. (It was too long for my age group, too.)
