Leave your thoughts about Zoom.
| Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)John BeifussStink jokes, snot jokes, Smash Mouth songs, dependably dull Tim Allen, some truly obnoxious product placement and 'We're more than a team, we're a family' bromides leach the potential pleasure from this overfamiliar story... |
| Zap2it.comDan FienbergFeaturing a bizarrely dated soundtrack fueled by new music from Smash Mouth, Zoom was designed as a film of training montages. I stopped counting after a half-dozen. |
| San Antonio Express-NewsLarry RatliffAllen falls somewhere in between phoning this performance in and giving it a half-hearted try. Courteney Cox approaches her role (his love interest in a lab coat) like she'd very much like to be back on Friends. |
| Hollywood.comMichael SzymanskiWant to see child superheroes? See Sky High, Spy Kids or The Incredibles. And Tim Allen is better and more curmudgeonly in the Santa Clause films |
| FilmJerk.comBrian OrndorfIf you can overlook the snot and fart material that litters the screenplay, the grotesque product placement, along with the rancid Smash Mouth soundtrack, Zoom actually has a faint ability to please. |
| Christian Science MonitorM. K. TerrellIt's OK entertainment for preteens, while Cox adds some slapstick and love interest as a klutzy psychiatrist. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...a light-hearted and mindlessly engaging time-waster. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderSeeing the once-great Chevy Chase reduced to this bug-eyed buffoonery is sad, like watching an old man crap his pants at the grocery store. |
| MovieFreak.comSara Michelle FettersThe whole thing is a PG-rated greatest hits collection, elements of so many other pictures popping up throughout one could almost make a game of trying to spot and catalogue them all before things run their well-known course. |
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanIn all truthfulness, Zoom was better than I thought it would be...and by that, I mean that it didn't completely suck. |
