Jack the Giant Slayer Ratings & Reviews
Grantland
Wesley Morris
Forget that Giant Slayer feels photocopied and is entirely unnecessary. It's just not exciting.

Leonard Maltin
My only real quarrel with Jack, other than the intensity and violence of its battle scenes (which are too potent for younger children), is that it goes on too long
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
It's fast, rousing, and blessedly brief - under two hours instead of, say, nine in three bladder-straining installments.
Shockya.com
Perri Nemiroff
It's a fantastical, CGI romp; who's seeing it for character development or even a wholly believable narrative for that matter? It's about the fun of the adventure and in that sense, it delivers.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Cary Darling
Unlike Peter Jackson with the overstuffed The Hobbit,[director Bryan]Singer shies away from the epic and settles for entertaining. Sometimes that's more than enough.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Not awful, not wonderful, Jack the Giant Slayer is a midrange fairy tale epic that's a lot more ho-hum than fee-fi-fo-fum.
CNN.com
Tom Charity
Jack the Giant Slayer is slight, but consistently amusing.
ScreenCrush
Matt Singer
Bland four-quadrant filmmaking.
TIME Magazine
Mary F. Pols
The movie feels so much like a video game that your fingers instinctively itch to do something, though a Jack video game isn't one we'd really want to play.
Detroit News
Tom Long
"Jack the Giant Slayer" seems more likely to be "Jack the Giant Bomb."
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
"Jack" seems designed to appeal to a very narrow, and possibly illusory, demographic: the mature moppet.
Back Stage
Tim Grierson
Though never quite feeling impersonal, this "Lord of the Rings"-style fantasy film is as ungainly as the movie's hulking, fearsome monsters -- and not nearly as powerful.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
A grand bedtime story, 21st century-style.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Singer's take on ye olde yarne has wit about it, and it certainly looks good.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
There may never have been a Jack tale that delivered so little pleasure for so many dollars as what we have here.
What the Flick?!
Alonso Duralde
The beanstalk looks great; everything else is ugly, or fakey, or both.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Hartlaub
What's the point of making a movie with a 9-year-old boy's sensibility, then including just enough violence to garner a PG-13 rating?
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Jack's problem is that he's a commoner, but the movie's problem is that its script is commoner still, an enchantment-free pretext for animated action, straight-ahead storytelling and ersatz romance.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
"Jack the Giant Slayer" is the kind of old-fashioned, entertaining fantasy-adventure you once saw regularly in theaters.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
There's more to this Jack and the Beanstalk adaptation than Fee-fi-fo-fum.
