Critics Consensus

With bland visuals and a dull, predictable plot, Alpha and Omega is a runt in 2010's animated litter.

The 8-12s will love it, but grown-ups may feel they've seen lots of it before (especially the caribou stampede, a shameless pinch from The Lion King.)

Here is a pleasant, undemanding animated family comedy - decent enough, but it feels like a reshuffling of dozens of films you've seen before.

A poorly written and disappointingly animated adventure that may keep the wee'uns happy for a while but will leave the adults snoozing.

This piece of child entertainment is a visual delight and not a punishment for the accompanying adults. [Full review in Spanish]

2/5

The animation, coupled with a jarring use of 3D, makes for a visually unspectacular film that feels very similar to others that have come before it.

I’ve always loved this movie when I was a kid, and I still love it to this day. I wish Lionsgate would consider bringing this franchise back with all cast members.

Ever since I watch the movie when I was little, this movie is my favorite because not only because I love the characters and the plot, but it’s because I love when Kate and Humphrey howl together. In this movie taught me no matter how different between you and the person you know, love always make them stronger. Even if you two don’t get along as much.

A very weak animated film that suffers from dated visuals and a love story riddled with clichés. It fails to deliver genuinely funny jokes, and the pacing really drags.

Alpha and Omega is one of those animated movies that just feels good to watch. It’s funny without trying too hard, sweet without being cheesy, and the chemistry between Humphrey and Kate totally carries the story. The wilderness backdrop is beautiful, the adventure keeps moving, and underneath all the laughs there’s a genuinely heartfelt message about stepping outside your comfort zone and finding your place. It’s an easy, cozy rewatch that has way more charm than some of the bigger budget animated flix.

Humphrey was so annoying in this movie. Hell, he's the worst character in the whole franchise. I don't know what Kate sees in him. Literally Kate was one of the only well-written of all the characters
