Rob Minkoff has directed a movie that's nearly laughless and nowhere near as frightening as what's happened to Eddie Murphy's career.
Brian Parks, Village Voice
Fresh
A pleasant and atmospheric family romp, offering enough mildly chilling thrills to keep everyone entertained during its brief running time.
Sheri Linden, Hollywood Reporter
Rotten
More Disneyland ride than movie, short on plot and long on dazzling visuals for the kiddies.
Bill Muller, Arizona Republic
Fresh
The point of Haunted Mansion is for audiences to sit back and enjoy the ride, which is easy to do thanks to an engaging story, the striking, Gothic-inspired set by Oscar-winner John Myhre and some delightful special effects.
