Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Monster House benefits from strong graphic design and lovely lighting, but the script is nothing to write home about.
– Joe Morgenstern,
Wall Street Journal,

fresh:
Until this animated horrorfest turns shrill, debuting director Gil Kenan delivers enough visual goods to justify the faith of producers Steven Spielberg and Robert Zemeckis.
– Peter Travers,
Rolling Stone,

The storytelling skill in Monster House isn't always up to its visuals. But as a roller-coaster summer entertainment, it's a heck of a lot more fun than Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, not to mention a full hour shorter.
– Lou Lumenick,
New York Post,

fresh:
The difference between Monster House and most other animated movies is a little thing called story. It actually has one, and doesn't just trot out cheeky characters spewing gratuitous pop-culture references.
– Christy Lemire,
Associated Press,

fresh:
It's part story and part spectacle, with the two halves being nicely balanced to offer something for just about everyone.
