What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Peanuts Movie offers a colorful gateway into the world of its classic characters and a sweetly nostalgic -- if relatively unambitious -- treat for the adults who grew up with them.

3.5/4
To paraphrase a speech made once upon a time in a pumpkin patch, there's no hypocrisy to be found in any of this, just sincerity, pretty much as far as the eye can see. Go to Full Review Lou Lumenick New York Post Jun 20, 2016
2/4
Rendering the Red Baron-fighting Snoopy and way too many supporting characters in 3-D, and placing them in near-photo-realistic backgrounds, drains much of the charm from "The Peanuts Movie." Go to Full Review Tara Brady Irish Times Apr 21, 2016

This animation led by his eldest son Craig and his grandson Bryan, tells a new adventure that in a way brings together several of the stories that we have seen before, but in an updated way.The main essence of its original is maintained: human values...

The Peanuts Movie celebrates well-known character quirks, but it completely trashes the spirit of the strip. An unavoidable necessity? I’m forced to conclude this is perhaps the case, but it’s still infuriating. Go to Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Aug 24, 2022

“The Peanuts Movie” clings to an almost-forgotten vision of childhood. It’s sad to think of that way, but you can’t help but wonder. For that reason alone the Peanuts are a precious commodity to be cherished. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jay W @RT52162311 Sep 22, 2026 I was ready to give this film a negative review. I was never the biggest fan of "The Peanuts". And this movie wasn't much more than a compilation of various comic strip runs pasted together. You can very much feel when one side quest ends and a new one begins. And as one who has read enough Sunday comics, I know all these punchlines already. But then the movie surprised me. There was a moment that it felt like the movie was going to go the typical Kids' Movie route. I could see exactly how it was going to play out. But they zigged when I thought they were going to zag and I give them a ton of credit for that decision. The decision felt character informed and a natural progression of what they were going for. Also, I do like this sort of Yoshi's Wooly World animation style.

Peanuts, O Filme consegue a proeza de modernizar o visual de Charlie Brown e Snoopy para o 3D sem perder um milésimo da inocência e do charme das tirinhas clássicas. É simples, reconfortante e aquece o coração de qualquer geração.

Schulz proud. See more Read all reviews
