Ferdinand Ratings & Reviews
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Not that this Ferdinand was for me. It's too obnoxious, too self-involved, the hyperactive antics of pretty much every member of the supporting cast driving me bonkers.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
With a lovely voice performance from Cena, the spirit of Ferdinand does shine through. But the rest of the story filler is mostly forgettable.
Chesapeake Family Magazine
Roxana Hadadi
John Cena brings kindness and calmness to Ferdinand, the animated adaptation of the classic children's novel about a bull that would rather smell flowers than charge matadors.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
McKinnon's goat character is in constant and hilarious conversation with her many selves but the awkward handling of the slaughterhouse issue will upset some kids.
NPR
Scott Tobias
The lurching rhythms of Ferdinand make a clean story feel ungainly and episodic ...
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Ferdinand doesn't really do justice to its evergreen and far less cluttered source material.
RogerEbert.com
Susan Wloszczyna
A mostly pleasant surprise in a year that has produced a lack of stellar animated outings.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
The movie is bright and peppy enough to hold young viewers' attention, though a faithful 1938 Walt Disney short showed more inventiveness in eight minutes.
Washington Post
Jane Horwitz
In the title role, wrestler-turned-actor John Cena gives Ferdinand just the right balance of sweetness and strength. He becomes the wholly convincing center of the parable.
Entertainment Weekly
Devan Coggan
Ferdinand buries the original story's message under frenetic action scenes and grating sidekicks, turning a classic tale into just another flat animated comedy.
Boston Globe
Tom Russo
The good news is that while the movie is susceptible to some pandering, it also takes the story's charming core elements and gives them a contemporary luster.
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
The quality isn't up to Pixar standards, but Ferdinand does hit the sweet spot as far as its target audience is concerned. You know: for kids.
AV Club
Vikram Murthi
Faced with familiar story tropes and lowest-common-denominator bids for attention, anyone over the target demographic might ask themselves a multitude of questions as the mind inevitably wanders.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Maricar Estrella
But what really stands out are the themes of friendship, problem solving and learning to be true to yourself. Ferdinand does not back down to his bullies and stands firm in his beliefs.
Slant Magazine
Eric Henderson
Any potential subtext of Munro Leaf's children's book has been bleached out in the marketplace-oriented Ferdinand.
Associated Press
Mark Kennedy
Still, for all its problems, this is a film with world-class animation, revealing everything from astonishingly rich crowd scenes to rusty details on an old pail.
Chicago Sun-Times
Bill Zwecker
Most important, "Ferdinand's" anti-bullying message is an important lesson kids of all ages need to see - again, and again.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
If you can get through the excess of characters, and the requisite butt jokes, car chase and tween pop songs, the film does keep both the physical and the verbal comedy coming at a steady pace.
Variety
Peter Debruge
In what's been an underwhelming year for big-studio animation, it's the best of the bunch: sincere, likable, surprisingly funny, and overall true to its source material.
The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
It's no Coco, but Ferdinand... manages to squeak by with enough charming set-pieces and amusing sight gags to compensate for a stalling storyline.
