Critics Consensus

It plays like an extended episode, but The Powerpuff Girls Movie is still lots of fun.

This Cartoon Network feature-length animation manages to teach kids some good lessons and amuse the grown-ups without overdosing on pop-culture references.

2/5

Utilising the cheapest-looking animation ever to grace a cinema screen, this Cartoon Network spin-off will only appeal to a fraction of pre-teen girls.

I know this is meant to show the first time they fight crime, but their movie is not among their greatest moments. Then again, I cannot say that I didn’t have a bit of fun watching this either.

The Powerpuff Girls takes place in a similar vein, although its message is a little more rockum sockum, it still it has style and wit to spare, and a message of empowerment for bad little monkeys everywhere.

This would have been much better had it been reduced to a one hour episode on television rather than a stretched feature film.

Everything in this movie looks really cheap and unethical. Blossom and buttercup fighting was literally the worst part of this movie.

A fun, exciting if slightly offbeat origin story for the Powerpuff Girls. The movie should please fans of the show as well as first time viewers.
