Cats & Dogs: Critic Score: 54%. Average Rating: 5.5/10. Reviews Counted: 115. Fresh: 62. Rotten: 53. Critics Consensus: A great concept, but the movie fails to develop the characters and some of the jokes are hit-or-miss.

Atlantis: The Lost Empire: Critic Score: 49%. Average Rating: 5.5/10. Reviews Counted: 141. Fresh: 69. Rotten: 72. Critics Consensus: Atlantis provides a fast-paced spectacle, but stints on such things as character development and a coherent plot.
Maleficent: Critic Score: 49%. Average Rating: 5.7/10. Reviews Counted: 195. Fresh: 96. Rotten: 99. Critics Consensus: Angelina Jolie's magnetic performance outshines Maleficent's dazzling special effects; unfortunately, the movie around them fails to justify all that impressive effort.

Astro Boy: Critic Score: 49%. Average Rating: 5.6/10. Reviews Counted: 132. Fresh: 65. Rotten: 67. Critics Consensus: While it isn't terribly original, and it seems to have a political agenda that may rankle some viewers, Astro Boy boasts enough visual thrills to please its target demographic.
Rio 2: Critic Score: 48%. Average Rating: 5.4/10. Reviews Counted: 105. Fresh: 50. Rotten: 55. Critics Consensus: Like most sequels, Rio 2 takes its predecessor's basic template and tries to make it bigger -- which means it's even busier, more colorful, and ultimately more exhausting for viewers outside the youthful target demographic.

Everyone's Hero: Critic Score: 41%. Average Rating: 5/10. Reviews Counted: 68. Fresh: 28. Rotten: 40. Critics Consensus: Everyone's Hero is such a predictable and bland tale that it'll appeal mostly to little kids; others seeking something in Pixar's league are looking in the wrong ballpark.

Igor: Critic Score: 36%. Average Rating: 4.8/10. Reviews Counted: 90. Fresh: 32. Rotten: 58. Critics Consensus: With an animation style that apes Tim Burton, and a slew of cultural references that aren't clear enough to reach the crowds, Igor's patched together antics make it hard to see who the film is trying to please.

Space Jam: Critic Score: 35%. Average Rating: 5.1/10. Reviews Counted: 49. Fresh: 17. Rotten: 32. Critics Consensus: A harmless mishmash of basketball and animation that'll entertain kids but leave adults less than thrilled.
TMNT: Critic Score: 34%. Average Rating: 5/10. Reviews Counted: 115. Fresh: 39. Rotten: 76. Critics Consensus: TMNT's art direction is splendid, but the plot is non-existent and the dialogue lacks the irony and goofy wit of the earlier TMNT movies.

Critics Consensus: Planes has enough bright colors, goofy voices, and slick animation to distract some young viewers for 92 minutes -- and probably sell plenty of toys in the bargain -- but on nearly every other level, it's a Disney disappointment.
Hop: Critic Score: 25%. Average Rating: 4.4/10. Reviews Counted: 134. Fresh: 34. Rotten: 100. Critics Consensus: It's impressively animated, but Hop's script is so uninspired that not even James Marsden's frantic mugging can give it any bounce.

The Smurfs: Critic Score: 22%. Average Rating: 4/10. Reviews Counted: 116. Fresh: 26. Rotten: 90. Critics Consensus: The Smurfs assembles an undeniably talented cast of voice actors and live-action stars -- then crushes them beneath a blue mound of lowest-common-denominator kiddie fare.
