Leave your thoughts about Curious George.
| Hollywood.comKit BowenCurious George is an adorable and heartening adaptation that does the classic children's tale justice. |
| TV Guide MagazineKen FoxSongwriter Jack Johnson's collection of laid-back, sunshine pop tunes unobtrusively support the sweet and surprisingly touching story line, rather than the other way around. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerRebekah DennWhat a rare pleasure to see a classic book adapted for the screen and walk out feeling neither bored, offended nor outraged. |
| Filmcritic.comSean O'ConnellHow much would you have paid to see seasoned comics Ferrell and Barrymore dive into a live-action George with an actual monkey? |
| Detroit Free PressJohn MonaghanThe biggest surprise of Curious George is how it keeps consistently entertaining at a kids' level. |
| Palo Alto WeeklyTyler HanleyFans curious about George should explore the inquisitive simian's literary exploits rather than this big-screen banana. |
| Tyler Morning Telegraph (Texas)Jonathan R. PerryCute but never cloying, uncomplicated but not simple-minded, 'Curious George' is as light, energetic and satisfying as a flip through one of the storybooks that bear his name. |
| Film Journal InternationalDavid NohGeorge's character has been intensely cutesified here, with little of the subversive edge which remains the secret of his lasting appeal. |
| Portland OregonianShawn LevyThe film has a candy-colored look that stands in well for the books' primitive appeal. And the all-star cast of vocal performers -- Will Ferrell as Yellow Hat, Dick Van Dyke as his boss, David Cross as his rival, Drew Barrymore as his sweetie -- aim squarely and appropriately at a 4-year-old audience. |
| Baltimore SunChris KaltenbachSome adults may find the film unbearably simplistic, or its pace burdensomely slow. But it would be a shame if movie audiences have become so hyper-adrenalized that they can't appreciate a charmer like Curious George. |
