Wait for it to show on TV.

This movie as a big disappointment. There are too many things that it seems to condone that are wrong for children. The relationship between one of the older boys and his father is a reversed relationship. The father considers his teen... Full review

My 9 & 10 year old and I went to the theater today and watched this movie. It was very funny and we recognized characters from various TV shows. We were not the only ones who thought this movie was funny,... Full review
After seeing the previews, I wasn't expecting the movie to be anything other than cheesy. However, I was pleasantly surprised. I think that the young actors had great chemistry together on screen (even though Ashley Tisdale started to get on my... Full review

I absolutely loved this movie! I loved the comedy, the storyline, the action, the effects, everything! This may be my 3rd favorite movie of 2009 behind Friday the 13th and Land of the Lost! I've seen a lot of negative reviews... Full review

I saw this movie with my 2 kids -- ages 3 and 9. Although I can't say I cared for it much, they LOVED it. I've never seen my daughter (the 3 year old) laugh so much or sit so still... Full review

I am a mom with four children. My one-year-old didn't go with us, but my five-year-old, ten-year-old, and twelve-year-old went with me to see this movie. I must say it was refreshing to see a children's movie that was actually suitable... Full review
Flat and uninspired

The original title for Aliens in the Attic was "They Came From Upstairs" - a much better title, you must agree. Still, I can understand the change. Everything else about the movie is generic, bland, and unmemorable. The title was the... Full review
This movie was excellent, I saw it with my younger brother who was dying to see it, and I have to say - it made me laugh several times. The acting of the children was average, Robert Hoffman and Ashley Tisdale... Full review

Kids today...even a nine year old, have been weaned on Spidey and Iron Man so even they know crappy CGI when they see it. Take my word for it, you see it in this movie from beginning to end! I had... Full review

Entertainmentwise
An entertaining, if very light, family film.....Hoffman is genuinely funny in many places (see above), and the younger kids provide a good point of view for what will surely be a pre-teen audience.....Almost every scene is played for laughs, the SFX are not very impressive..... ... Full Review

There are worse movies out there aimed at children....The special effects were adequate....Surprisingly enough, with comedians like Kevin Nealon , Tim Meadows , and Andy Richter starring as the clueless adults, the film wasn't all that funny.....not to up to the scale of the summer's other mindless big-budget kid movies.... ...
