Movie Reviews

Boston Globe - 10/10 by Matthew GilbertImaginative, slightly creepy, but tremendously appealing to all ages. It's ripe to bursting with visual effects a heady combination of stop-motion and computer-generated imagery. And it has a delightful cast of personable bugs and larvae, all bound for New York City via floating fruit.
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Peter StackIt's a stunning, delightful image adventure like nothing done before on the big screen.
Variety - 10/10 by Jeremy GerardAll in all, James and the Giant Peach is an extraordinary achievement.
Washington Post - 10/10 by Hal HinsonThe latest in an impressive string of first-rate movies for kids.
Nitrate Online - 10/10 by Dan LybargerHandsomely animated adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic.
The Hollywood Reporter - 9/10 by Duane ByrgeI hope we don't have to wait another quarter-century for the next great Dahl adaptation, but for a film as good as this one, I'll wait.
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Gene SiskelAnother superb stop-action animated film from the same team responsible for Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas."
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael WilmingtonIt's a candy-flavored blast of a movie. But though children may love it, they shouldn't monopolize it. Adults will want to eat this peach, or ride it to Manhattan, just as much.
Seattle Times - 9/10 by Doug ThomasThe best surprise is Selick's handling of the live-action sequences, notably the opening scenes. Young James (a perfect Paul Terry) works around the surreal sets of Harley Jessup (conceived by illustrator Lane Smith).
Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Owen GleibermanIf only they’d trusted it more, they might have made a marvelous kids’ film instead of a merely charming one.
