Paulie Ratings & Reviews
Variety
Todd McCarthy
Paulie has moments of minor charm but lacks the magic to fully capture the imaginations of either children or adults.
Chicago Reader
Lisa Alspector
Shalhoub gives an impressively nuanced performance in the dangerously cliched role, and Paulie -- a combination of trained parrots, animatronics, and the voice of Mohr -- comes across as a fully developed character.
Film Threat
Ron Wells
My head still throbs from being hit repeatedly with blunt life lessons.
Moviehole
Caffeinated Clint
Family viewing that soars
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
Its star is a very appealing little guy. Parents will be mildly amused, too.
Film Quips Online
John R. McEwen
Surprisingly enjoyable.
Cincinnati Enquirer
Margaret A. McGurk
It features smart, emotional storytelling, skillful filmmaking and solid, yuk-worthy jokes.
Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)
Jeffrey Westhoff
Paulie isn't a complicated film, but it is heartfelt. And for a change, parents in the theater won't feel embarrassed by the things their children are laughing at.
Los Angeles Times
Bob Heisler
A perfect family movie with the intelligence, humor and hug-me moments to be a great first-date movie, too. Just remember to bring a hankie.
New York Times
Lawrence Van Gelder
It is something to behold.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The film is aimed at children, I suppose, although I don't think they'll like Paulie all that much. I didn't.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Stack
Paulie has elements of a good weepy, but overall it never quite gels beyond being a passable novelty.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
A convenient, unprepossessing time-waster for Saturday afternoon kiddies.
Houston Chronicle
Louis B. Parks
Unusual and surprisingly agreeable.
