Leave your thoughts about Luis and the Aliens.
| Los Angeles TimesKatie WalshIt’s a silly, fairly rote animated film, but underneath the hijinks and mishaps is a rather devastatingly sad story. It’s this poignancy that makes Luis & the Aliens a step above the rest. |
| Stuff.co.nzJames CrootWhile the characters and situations may be a little too predictable and farcical for sustained enjoyable supervised viewing, there's an overall feeling of fun that emanates from the just-right running time. |
| Common Sense MediaBrian CostelloAnimated alien movie has potty humor, bullying. |
| The ListEddie HarrisonA s a time-passer, it offers some shapeless fun for easily-amused kids. |
| Film ThreatBradley GibsonThe animation is workmanlike in its execution, delivering more seamlessly perfect digital commodity level output. |
| Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThough peppy and bright enough that it might amuse some kids should it show up on a screen in front of them somewhere, it offers no reason for their adult guardians to actually take them someplace to watch it. |
| RTÉ (Ireland)Sarah McIntyreA strangely flat, uninspired animated comedy. |
| Daily Mail (UK)Toby YoungBest thing about it is its running time of less than 90 minutes. |
| GuardianCath ClarkeThis bland and predictable animation about an outsider kid who makes friends with aliens pinches an awful lot of its ideas from superior family films, without reviving any of their wonder or fun. |
| Irish IndependentPaul WhitingtonIt's passably animated but clumsily written, and not especially original. |
