Reviews for this film from our members:
- [New – 1/24] | Luke Bonanno @ DVDizzy.com
- Excerpt: Sony Pictures Animation tries to find a compromise between standard Adam Sandler entertainment and the lucrative world of CG family comedies.
- Tim Brayton @ Antagony & Ecstasy
- Excerpt: Tells an insipid story with a script that manages to make that story seem even worse.
- Samuel Castro @ Ochoymedio.info [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Aprovechándose del histórico maltrato a los monstruos en el cine, Hotel Transylvania intenta contar una historia divertida, sin conseguirlo del todo
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Sandler and Samberg are united for the second time in 2012, this time not as father and son but as father and potential son-in-law. They were funnier the first time around.
- Jim Dixon @ Examiner.com
- Excerpt: This is a far more family-friendly movie than most of Sandler’s output lately, particularly this summer’s “That’s My Boy.” The comedy is broad, and young children will likely be unable to resist non-scary monsters doing pratfalls.
- Mark Dujsik @ Mark Reviews Movies
- Excerpt: From top to bottom, Hotel Transylvania feels like a rush job.
- Kimberly Gadette @ doddle
- Excerpt: Other than a third act that drags on a bit longer than you-know-who’s oversized cape, Hotel Transylvania serves up a frightfully good time. Feel free to check in any time you like.
- Panagiotis Gkaris @ Movies Ltd
- Excerpt: In a year that big animation studios are bringing out the dead (Frankenweenie and ParaNorman being the illustrative manifestations of this latest trend), I remain in the minority claiming that Hotel Transylvania, thinly plotted or clichéd as accused, gives the films stated above a run for their money, by simply staying true to what young ages aspire from an animated story; solid fun, clear message, eye-grasping sketching.
- Susan Granger @ www.susangranger.com
- Excerpt: A stale, sloppy fright-fest that’s destined to take a quick detour to the DVD shelf, where it will inevitably stake its claim.
- Benjamin Kramer @ The Voracious Filmgoer
- Dan Lybarger @ KCActive.com
- Excerpt: About the only thing interesting about “Hotel Transylvania” is its release date, September 28, World Rabies Day.
- Tiago Ramos @ Split Screen [Portuguese]
- Jerry Roberts @ Armchair Cinema
- Excerpt: a witty, lively, funny and inventive screwball animated adventure that is no masterpiece but unlike the dreary “ParaNorman”, this one keeps its comic tone and doesn’t drown itself in overwrought melodrama.
- Márcio Sallem @ Cinema com Crítica [Portuguese]
- Excerpt: Hotel Transilvânia é uma aventura inofensiva e pedestre, longe do baixo nível das produções da Happy Madison, mas carente de boas ideias.
