What are critics saying?
The Hollywood Reporter by Frank Scheck
It lacks the wit and charm necessary to interest any but the most undemanding preteen viewers.
The Guardian by Leslie Felperin
In the hands of director Christopher N Rowley and an assortment of screenwriters (including Byng), the result is a rebarbative mess – mirthless and shoddy like a disposable Christmas stocking novelty.
