All Critics (20) | Top Critics (8) | Fresh (14) | Rotten (6)

[Ken] Marino steps up to turn a largely thankless role into the movie's most interesting subject.

The kind of vanilla, disposable product one imagines might've played on the Disney Channel around the turn of the century.

It's the spark of an idea, given an execution that's strictly mild.

Nothing about "The Sleepover" will surprise, and at its best, that's a comfort; at its worst, it will put you right to sleep.

As "The Sleepover" juggles the genres of heist movie, action thriller, scavenger hunt and teen/tween comedy, it never finds an identity which it slips into effortlessly, the way a good thief can.

New York Times
Sie is not reinventing the genre wheel here, and many of her set pieces feel made-for-TV flat, but she appears to be having as much fun as her budget allows.

What also makes the film have some charm is how the screenplay by Sarah Rothschild has a lot of genuine humor in it.

Entertainment Voice
The Sleepover is the movie equivalent of plain oatmeal or a saltine - bland and unexciting, but not actively unpleasant...It isn't nutritious or all that satisfying, but it's familiar and it'll do in a pinch.

The Maine Edge
"The Sleepover"is an outrageous, silly family-centered film for the everyone, similar to the "Spy Kids" movies.

Sarah's Backstage Pass
As harebrained, mostly clean, overly convoluted, somewhat hyperactive, kinda funny, family-friendly movies-that-need-a-quiet-place-to-calm-down-a-little-bit go, The Sleepover is wholly watchable.

A family-friendly action movie, The Sleepover has it all - adventure, humor, silliness, heartwarming lessons, sweet dance moves, and a delightful cast.

The real strength of The Sleepover is the kids. Kevin and Clancy, played by Disney Channel regulars Maxwell Simkins and Sadie Stanley, are hilariously authentic.
