Hotel Transylvania's buoyant, giddy tone may please children, but it might be a little too loud and thinly-scripted for older audiences.

Comedy gothic isn't exactly novel, and frankly there is a sense here of a movie coasting along on Halloween hype-marketing, without providing as many laughs and ideas as it really could have done. Oct 11, 2012 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

No one does saccharine like Adam Sandler. The man can be sharp, angry and funny - but when he lays on the sweetness, it's like drowning in an avalanche of Tate & Lyle. Oct 11, 2012 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Somehow dull and exhausting all at once, and the central concept (monsters who fear humans) was explored with far more wit and elegance in Pixar's timeless Monsters, Inc. Oct 11, 2012 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It's all strictly one-note stuff. But it's a funny note, and the film has a grand old time giving us the same type of gag over and over again. Oct 1, 2012 | Full Review…

The way this collection of monster misfits tackle both each other and the threat of human invasion has the right degree of wit and sophistication to amuse adults whilst being zany and slapstick enough to hold children's attention. Feb 4, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

As a straight up monster movie, this film could have had a lot of fun diving further into the stereotypes... and then extending the confrontation that occurs at the end. Instead it's weighed down by the teen romance and need to conceal Jonathan. Oct 19, 2018 | Full Review…
