| Boston GlobeJay CarrDisney's disappointing Atlantis, sadly, is a lot like much of the studio's recent animated output: eye-popping visuals and great vocal characterizations sunk by a dead-in-the-water script. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertRousing in an old pulp science fiction sort of way, but the climactic scene transcends the rest, and stands by itself as one of the great animated action sequences. |
| Greenwich Village GazetteEric LurioThis movie has plotholes that you can run a battleship through, and there are loads of them. |
| San Diego MetropolitanJean LowerisonYour best bet is to forget the story and concentrate on the animation. |
| Cinemaphile.orgDavid Keyes'Atlantis' is both nostalgic and fresh, a film that occupies a style both memorable and familiar and utilizes effective storytelling rarely seen in cartoons. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawReasonable half-term holiday fare from Disney. |
| eFilmCritic.comAndrew HoweA rousing, artfully-designed adventure laced with adult concepts and laugh-out-loud humour |
| Film BlatherEugene NovikovAtlantis proves that if you want to tell a story, you need a story. |
| MoviolaJorge Avila AndradeDisney sigue siendo lo que siempre ha sido desde su creación: una fábrica de sueños, de los cuales Atlantis es el más reciente |
| Miami HeraldChristine DolenThe character designs, however, are much less impressive. Except for the oddly naturalistic Sinclair, the rest look like cartoony characters from one of Disney's '60s films. |
