Leave your thoughts about Hoot.
| Globe and MailLiam LaceyThe goal is apparently a double exercise in heartfelt lessons and deep hilarity, but it's hard to tell because the pace feels so lethargic. Director and screenwriter Wil Shriner is a TV-sitcom veteran (Frasier, Everybody Loves Raymond) whose idea of directing a movie is to make another sitcom, only four times as long. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekFrom the ecological perspective, this family flick may have its heart in the right place, but in terms of intellect it leaves much to be desired. |
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanIn a time when so many "family" films are lazy or send mixed messages, it's incredibly refreshing to see one that is as brainy, funny, and charming as Hoot. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongHoot is safe enough to take your kids to, but you might want to have a talk with them afterward about continuing to go to school and shying away from major felonies. |
| Reel.comTimothy KnightIt feels a little churlish to pan an environmentally friendly film that presents kids taking a courageous stand, but Hoot is disappointingly lackluster from start to finish. |
| Worcester Telegram & GazetteDaniel M. KimmelThis is a film that may inspire kids to become more eco-friendly and/or go out and read Hiaason's novel... |
| Sun Publications (Chicago, IL)Josh Larsen...the cute kiddie version of an environmental protest song. |
| OregonianMike RussellThe errant subplots go nowhere. The movie has an episodic TV quality so pronounced, I kept expecting commercial breaks. |
| Chicago ReaderAndrea GronvallWriter-director Wil Shriner tends to sit on almost every shot, killing any comic momentum (sequences with Luke Wilson as a dim-bulb cop are particularly witless), and ominous scenes involving cottonmouths and Rottweilers are glibly resolved. |
| Boston GlobeTy BurrThe movie balances cardboard comic bad-guys with believable teenagers, has the courage to avoid romance, and unlike most Hollywood films suggests parents can be helpful and loving as well as clueless. |
