Critics Consensus

Peter Rabbit updates Beatrix Potter's classic characters with colorfully agreeable results that should entertain younger viewers while admittedly risking the wrath of purists.

2/5

More than anything, Gluck seems bored with the material, and worried that his audience will be too. Unfortunately, making the action more frenetic only adds to the sense of desperation.

3/5

The blend of animation and live action feels natural and even at its most ridiculous points, the film is still irresistibly likeable. It may not look like much at first but Peter Rabbit is an unexpected pleasure.

3/5

Gleeson and his committed stunt doubles fall down stairs impressively and often. The voice cast for the animated animals (Robbie, Ridley et al) is absurdly starry and game. Expect many, many sequels to this solid family comedy.

1.5/4

A loud and abrasive film populated by cute creatures and zippy, restless humor.

2.5/4

Considering that the initial trailer made Peter Rabbit look like one of the greatest disasters since the sinking of the Titanic, it's somewhat shocking to note that the end result isn't half bad.

Peter Rabbit might not be what Beatrix Potter had in mind when she wrote and illustrated her famous books on which this film is based, but I think she would be OK with its message to children...

Esta adaptação moderna injeta uma enorme dose de energia e atitude na clássica obra literária. O grande destaque vai para a excelente mistura entre imagem real e animação digital, que dá imensa expressividade aos animais. Embora o argumento abuse de piadas físicas exageradas e descaracterize um pouco o tom dócil do material original, o ritmo acelerado e o humor visual funcionam muito bem. É um filme leve e bastante divertido para ver na Páscoa, cumprindo o seu papel de entretenimento familiar.

An offence to the works of Beatrix, it's an interesting reimagining, which changes the overall dynamic and has you siding for Mr McGregor. As a vegetarian I shouldn't want to see Peter in a pie but here we are. It's manic high energy sequences are designed to keep kids affixed to the screen rather than focusing on fostering engagement through storytelling. Years after first watching I'm still haunted. This is the benchmark of how bad kids TV has gotten. Not fit for children. Tv like this is designed to overwhelm a child's nervous system to maintain attention. Just because they stay engaged does not mean it is good for them. And on a secondary note, a landrover axle does not spin like that.
