It's like one of the so-so "Muppets" movies, where you're happy to see the characters back on screen again, yet slightly impatient that they've forgotten to bring enough jokes.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Rotten
A disappointing rehash of Pee-wee's 1985 film debut. Netflix subscribers may find it skim-worthy.
Rafer Guzman, Newsday
Rotten
Pee-wee is still a startling and original and strangely endearing creation. He just deserved a funnier, more intriguing holiday.
Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times
Fresh
After all these years - his and ours - Pee-wee Herman is still a Peter Pan who can lead us back to innocence with a corny joke or a childish jape.
David Wiegand, San Francisco Chronicle
Fresh
Pee-wee doesn't come saddled with backstory, like Batman. He's more like Mickey Mouse, an icon who can become anything he wants.
Amy Nicholson, MTV
