If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Blistering performances.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

This movie is so fun.I highly recommend watching it. funny and entertaining. Kids love it. Adults love it.Everybody loves it. the story of the movie is amazing as well. Adventure roller coaster of a movie. Good screen play. This film has some of the finest voice actings I have ever heard in an animated feature

When i saw the trailer i thought that it won't be so good, c'mon a dog adopting a child etc. In the beginning i got a little irritated by Peabody's look, But it was alright. The movie was awesome from the beginning till the end. I can't believe what people are saying about this. But for me it was an awesome movie. A DON'T MISS INDEED

The movie Mr. Peabody and Sherman is a children's science fiction movie, with a theme of unconditional love. This very inspirational movie is without doubt, a clear message that any one no matter how small or what kind can be a genius. The movie begins with the introduction of Mr. Peabody explaining his life and his very marvelous achievements throughout it. Then young Sherman enters the movie with the explanation of Mr. Peabody's best invention a time machine. Then they travel in time to the Palace of Versailles in 1789, they attend a dinner party for Queen Marie Antoinette, while trouble is uprising with the people of Paris. Then they go through the many stages of the revolution, during this period Mr. Peabody show his quick thinking and ingenuity when he escapes the fate of the guillotine. At the end of this adventure Mr. Peabody asks the boy about what he learned in this trip. Then they return to the modern day and it is Sherman's first day at school, Mr. Peabody telling Sherman about rules at school and sends him off. At first Sherman makes a good impression in history class, but makes a girl named Penny jealous. This leads to some bulling and in defense Sherman bites her. This calls Mr. Peabody's attention and so does to the Department of Child Safety. This causes tension. Later Mr. Peabody invites the Peterson family (Penny's parents) for a dinner party to settle the matter before The agent comes to inspect the house. Later a temptation forces Sherman to use the Way Back or the time machine, then penny gets engaged to King Tutankhamen and they rescue them, then they to Florence, and many more time traveling mania happens and tension begins to sprout when Sherman finds out that the agent from child safety is trying to take him away from Mr. Peabody. Then they end up in Troy in the Trojan War, after a rescue Mr. Peabody seems to die, but that is not the end.Personally this was and still is a great movie to watch. The whole concept of a dog being a super genius and some fancy scientist intrigues me to watch this. Not only is this movie inspirational but teaches a whole lot about big historical events and how fast the mind can work. I found this a very important key in a children's movie, while in today's society we are hit with a lot of movies that are crammed in with pure nonsense and don't educate the child in an engaging way as this movie does. It is funny, and very engaging not only for children but the whole family as well. I would really recommend it, and it's message to the family viewers of today.

I'll be honest, I never watched the "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" cartoon growing up. I mean, I might have, but I don't remember. Anyway, I decided to watch the new movie not to long ago, since I love time travel stories. And... I'm very mixed about this movie. On one hand, I like what (I think) they did with Mr. Peabody. I get this vibe that Peabody being told he can't be a good father because he's a dog is a metaphor for LBGT people being told that they can't be good parents because they're gay. I don't know anyone raised by LBGT parents, but I'm not against it. Also, Peabody is a very interesting character. I like the jokes surrounding each era they travel to. And, Mel Brooks cameo, you can't go wrong with that. But on the other hand, I really really REALLY hate Penny. This b**** just p***** me off. She is just so mean to Sherman, that I wish she had her hand stabbed in Egypt. I hoped they would drop her off in the Jurassic era, I hate her that much. And my other problem is, why doesn't Peabody just home school Sherman? He's pretty much the smartest thing in the world, so why doesn't he just teach Sherman himself? Anyway, I'm very meh about this movie. There are a lot of things I liked, but there are just as many things that I hated. But I will give it this, it is one of the best movies based on a cartoon in recent history. If you like the original cartoon, then you might like this. If you're like me, then you can watch it once and call it good.
