- José Arce @ LaButaca.net [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Más allá de lo divertidamente nostálgico de ver a los grandes iconos de los salones recreativos en pantalla grande, poco que destacar de la enésima comedia blandengue de Adam Sandler. Otro bluff veraniego.
- Nicholas Bell @ Ioncinema
- Kevin Carr @ 7M Pictures
- Excerpt: If you can get past a knee-jerk reaction to Adam Sandler and Kevin James, “Pixels” can be a lot of fun.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: like the second rate leavings of “Wreck-It Ralph” by way of an Adam Sandler family movie attempting to pre-board the rebooted Ghostbusters 80’s nostalgia bandwagon.

- Mark Dujsik @ Mark Reviews Movies
- Excerpt: In the context of what they bring to the table in this movie, the statement “and Kevin James as the President of the United States” is the funniest thing about these actors’ presence here.
- Susan Granger @ www.susangranger.com
- Excerpt: A sloppy, sci-fi comedy bust….
- Vadym Grygoriev @ kinoblog.com [Ukrainian]
- MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: Adam Sandler imagines himself as the savior of the planet. And then it gets even more puffed up with arrogance and all manner of masturbatory fantasy.
- Charlie Juhl @ Citizen Charlie
- Excerpt: If you played arcade games in the early ’80s, you just might really enjoy this ridiculous movie
- Ben Kendrick @ Screen Rant
- Excerpt: Despite a solid premise and talented supporting cast, Pixels is another shallow addition to Adam Sandler’s product line.
- Jeremy Kibler @ The Artful Critic
- Excerpt: Instead of comparing “Pixels” to any of Sandler’s previous vehicles with a backhanded compliment, like “that was more of a kick in the shin than a ball in the groin,” it’s actually pretty painless.
- Benjamin Kramer @ The Voracious Filmgoer
- Kristin Dreyer Kramer @ NightsAndWeekends.com
- Matt Looker @ The Shiznit
- Excerpt: Adam Sandler seems to just be coasting whatever is left of his career, resigned to the fact that his game was over long ago.
- Glenn Lovell @ CinemaDope.com
- Excerpt: … aspires to be a new ‘Ghostbusters.’ More like a sci-fi ‘Deuce Bigelow.’ All that’s missing is Rob Schneider on the sidelines urging ‘You can do it!’
- Dan Lybarger @ ArkansasOnline.com
- Excerpt: Where is Wreck-It Ralph when he’s most needed?
- Jason McKiernan @ Film Racket
- Excerpt: Pixels is about as entertaining as a video game-based action comedy produced by and starring Adam Sandler can be.
- Frank Ochieng @ SF Crowsnest
- Excerpt: …the clunky ‘Pixels’ is nothing more than an updated poor man’s version of the aforementioned ‘Ghostbusters’ with little distinctive spark or imagination to accompany the empty zaniness. This latest lame and recycled Adam Sandler-led vehicle should come with the familiar message that is flashed at every conclusion of a video game: Game Over!
- Kristy Puchko @ Spinoff Online
- Excerpt: If “Wreck-It Ralph” was a love letter to video games, “Pixels” is that careless sext in the middle of the night that reads, “U up?”
- Frank Swietek @ One Guys Opinion
- Excerpt: Juvenile in every conceivable respect, less coarse than Sandler’s recent vehicles but unhappily not much more engaging.
