Film Threat by

The animation is workmanlike in its execution, delivering more seamlessly perfect digital commodity level output.

The Guardian by Cath Clarke

This 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.

The Hollywood Reporter by John DeFore

Though 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.

Los Angeles Times by Katie Walsh

It’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.
