Despite a promising turn by newcomer Yara Shahidi, Imagine That is another pedestrian family comedy that squanders Eddie Murphy's comedic talents.

Murphy struggles to find work in other genres, but given the way he indulges himself with funny faces and voices, it's equally possible that he genuinely likes acting alongside children. September 17, 2009 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It's anodyne stuff and not funny enough. August 17, 2009 | Full Review…

Murphy at least tries to stay in character rather than overdoing the silly voices and physical knockabout, but maybe the material was so blah that he felt it wasn't worth the effort. August 14, 2009 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

You're left with the feeling that the film-makers don't see a conflict between the profit motive and paternal love. August 14, 2009 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

There really isn't a spark of genuine humour or life in the entire thing, and the movie grinds its way to a syrupy finale. August 14, 2009 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

How would it be if Eddie Murphy quit making trashy, ingratiating comedies and grew up? Imagine that. August 14, 2009 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

A disappointment is that the film eventually veers into predictable territory...but along the way, Murphy and the sparkling Shahidi develop wonderful chemistry, Church gamely steals the show, and the film's star sings, dances and even freaks out. August 8, 2018 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

It's silly enough that its target audience should get a kick out of it and its bearable for adults, and as far as family films go that's a lot better than you can usually expect. March 27, 2011 | Rating: 6.5/10 | Full Review…

You might chuckle a couple of times, but it is literally a couple, and that's nowhere near enough humour, especially for kids. April 15, 2010 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

[Murphy] continues to treat his career like it were a game of limbo, as Imagine That sees the once gifted comedian stoop to a horrendous new low. October 5, 2009 | Rating: .5/5

Imagine That is an embarrassment from which only Thomas Haden Church emerges unscathed, because he is the only one to commit fully to his eccentric character. October 1, 2009 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review…
