A cute movie. I enjoy sitting down and watching it! It's not for everybody, but I had fun.

I have to say this: Even with this movie's flaws, I might never forget the fun experience I had with it

I don't hate this movie or love it. I liked the father-son dynamic. I enjoyed some of the history jokes they threw-in. But overall, I felt like it was an OK movie, not one that stands out. It's a vanilla movie.

The movie is really heartwarming and also pretty fun to watch, really liked the historical/classic literature references (especially the Oedipus one)

A passable animation. Not great but a fun watch. I briefly remember watching the cartoon segments growing up. I don't remember any of the details so I can't say how faithful it was to the original segments. Worth at least a watch.

I don't get the hate for this film, it's really creative and underappreciated in my opinion.

Rich Storyline and a Great Update for This 60s Character I saw the trailers and I expected it to be more concentrated on time travel and not have much of a story line. Well there is. A fantastic one at that! "Mr. Peabody and Sherman" is a wonderful story about a dog who adopts a boy. The film also has lots of animated things to love - like history, comedy, romance, suspense and so much more. To make it even better – characters come to live thanks to the brilliant voice-over actors such as Ty Burrel and Max Charles. The film starts when a young puppy is growing up in different shelters. From a very early age he shows everyone how very special he is. He is intelligent, athletic and smooth. He wins many prizes, but his greatest adventure happens when he adopts a boy. Together they go through multiple adventures and troubles but able to stay together. I love so much about this film. The film itself is fantastic! I love how they take twenty five-minute shows that had old, colored 2-D animation and turn it into modern 3D animation with the use of modern technology. My favorite scene is when they show the story of how Mr. Peabody adopts Sherman. They show points throughout Sherman's little life of great moments, like his first step in 1709. Then it shows how he finds Sherman. That is definitely a sweet and loving part!

This is not just an entertaining film but also quite educational to audiences who watch this. I recommend this is a must-see for kids who love studying history

A highly enjoyable and at times hilarious movie. I'd normally just give it a 7 or an 8, but it's better than a 6.6 kind of movie so I have to settle for a 10!

The movie was ok, but not great. It has a forgettable story with not a lot happening. The characters are good but they don't have what I was looking for.

I gotta hand it to DreamWorks, they definitely go out of the box every now and then. Look no further than "Mr. Peabody & Sherman," an adaptation of a cartoon from the 1960s in 2014. Strange, I know, but luckily, the film works. "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" is beautifully animated, pretty funny, and it features some pretty lovable characters and great time-traveling fun. It feels like it never knows if it wants to be high-brow or succumb to toilet humor, but despite its inconsistency, "Mr. Peabody and Sherman" is a fun little animated film that's fun for all ages.

It started off very promising but falls flat with poor character development, comedy, and story direction. Don't get me started on Penny Peterson's instant magical attitude change.

Mr Peabody and Sherman is colorful and some kind of funny for entertaining young viewers, but it could be a bit difficult to understand for kids and not enough great for teen viewers. It also changes its plot many times and the characters doesn't work exactly for the same goal of the film, so that makes this premise a little dumb.

This movie is a fun and fast paced journey through time with two lovable characters Mr.Peabody and Sherman. After the success of the Lego movie i didn't think anything could come close to toppling it. While Mr.Peabody and Sherman is nowhere near as good as the Lego movie the movie is smart funny a lot of fun and fast paced. Ty Burrel makes a excellent Mr.Peabody and Max Charles makes a wonderful Sherman. They take a lot of the dialogue from the original TV show while still making this movie there own. The girl who voiced penny Ariel winter also did a great job. There are a few childish jokes here and there that this movie could have done without and penny went from a bully to no more than a damsel in distress. I wish The movie makers made her more of a strong willed character than a damsel in distress. Despite this Mr.Peabody and Sherman is a wonderful well made kids movie that is different than what Hollywood is offering and trust me you will have a great time

Alright, I was expecting a good review for this movie. I had a fun blast in 2014 and I expected this movie to get away with a positive review. Oh, it's from the same director that bought us "The Lion King." There were two directors in the Lion King, but one of them did this movie and it was worth it.

Mr. Peabody and Sherman does its best to work as a film. There is a clear passion behind the film as the writers struggle to make this 5-10 minute cartoon work as an 1 hour and 20 minute film. The solution was to make a mildly entertaining time travel movie similar to Back to the Future Part II full of lots of running around and crazy time travel antics that stays as true as it can to the classic cartoon. Thankfully Dreamworks doesn’t throw in their usual trade of pop culture references and the characters are at their core the characters from the film. Unfortunately, the writer’s solution to stretch the short cartoon into a feature length film that is nothing special. The story while told nicely is quite familiar with a lot of the heartfelt moments while touching cause films like Finding Nemo to come to mind, the new character Penny isn’t interesting being there to give the film somewhere to go, and the film at times, similar to Back to the Future Part II, is so caught up in the running around that it doesn’t take enough time to slow down and have heartfelt moments and the emotion core of the story pops in and out frequently taking a back seat to the action. Despite the comments I don’t hate the movie in fact I thought it was going to be atrocious and destroy a classic cartoon characters. To my surprise the film is charming with its energy, humor, and good animation. There is clear passion behind the film but this duo works better in short cartoons. Children will enjoy and it could serve as an introduction to the superior cartoon it is based off of, which parents if they haven’t seen it please show it to them. I’d probably be more annoyed if I was more attached to the original cartoon but on its own its fine the bummer just comes from knowing that the cartoon is 10x better. Nonetheless, when I look at the pop culture referencing, constantly puns, and pop songs that have dominated a lot of Dreamworks films lately its nice to have something that can make me smile every now and then. Nonetheless, Dreamworks can make great films and this film while entertaining isn’t great but hopefully How to Train Your Dragon 2 will give Dreamworks the hit they’ve been lacking for years.

Mr. Peabody and Sherman es una película muy variada y entretenida que hace buen huso de los aspectos de su trama para el disfrute familiar. Este es un largometraje que nos traslada a una historia muy interesante que usa elementos variados en su complemento como las irregularidades del tiempo y aprovecharlos para buenos gags y chistes en su clímax que, al fin y al cabo resulta inteligentemente efectivo y sustancialmente astuto. Además, logra mantener un buen planteamiento en su atmósfera, y consigue ser un film de animación admirable y decente.

Mr. Peabody & Sherman is a fun family film, one with fun voice performances and a good heart. Its nowhere near Dreamwork's Animation best film, but it proves they still have that magic touch.

É incrível a oscilação de qualidade das animações da DreamWorks. Ao mesmo tempo que ela lança animações excelentes como Rise of The Guardians (A Origem dos Guardiões) e How to Train Your Dragon 2 (Como Treinar o Seu Dragão 2) ela lança animações fraquíssimas como: Turbo e agora Mr. Peabody & Sherman (As Aventuras de Peabody & Sherman). A tempos não ficava tão entediado com uma animação. Com mais momentos de ação e menos comédia, o filme parece que ficou bem mais focado no público infantil. A animação não é das mais bonitas do estúdio, e a única coisa que salva são as referências históricas do filme. No mais, o filme pode até agradas as crianças, mas se torna realmente entediante para os adultos. Eu não recomendo!

A surprisingly great film that surpassed all of my low expectations. This movie is just as good for adults as it is for kids...which is fantastic. The funny dialogue and interesting story will make you want to see it again!

Good suspense and all, but why is this a rip off of meet the robinsons (at least it's not copyright(I think)) but also at the end(this brings the score down from a 7 to a 5) Basically Disney is saying that 250 mph is almost the speed of light, watch that part again please other than that it is good. 5.5

A surprising stinker from DreamWorks. The majority of the laughs are in the trailer. The only others come from two jokes aimed at adults. It's a rather dull film. Perhaps kids will enjoy it though. I for one found the characters to be annoying and the sentimentality of the plot to be forced. It's good to see a kids movie that tries to teach kids some history. I just wish the whole movie was more enjoyable as a whole. I typically enjoy animated movies for kids. Especially the ones from DreamWorks. However this one is mostly a bore. I spent the majority of the film playing on my phone. Whether or not your little ones will enjoy it or not I can't say. However I can tell you that older audiences like myself will be bored. It's a mediocre effort.

Mr. Peabody & Sherman features delightful visuals and a wide variety of historical figures but has a convoluted plot which is too confusing for it's target audience and predictable for the rest.

This movie, has a really nice argument, is funny, nice soundtrack, nice message, i don't understand why critics gave bad qualification to this movie, it's awesome. Deserves more than a 59.

This is a smart family film that not only teaches us a little slice of history but teaches us family comes in all shapes and sizes. Some of the jokes may be way over kid's heads but for adults those jokes work just fine. A-

For a film adaptation it does it job at a good pace and doesn't fall flat on its face. There really isn't anything else that I could say about it other than its decent.

I am quite young at heart. But this movie isn’t really a good example why I am young at heart. The voice acting in this movie are excellent especially Ty Burrell’s performance as Mr. Peabody. He is my favorite in the movie and I really forgot that he voiced a talking genius dog. The script is great. The dialogues are not cheesy for an animated movie for kids and the way how the plot flows is great. The humor of this movie is okay at least. Kids will appreciate the humor more than the adults and this is mainly the reason why I wouldn’t call this as one of my favorite animated movies. My drawback of this movie was the time traveling concept. The concept made me watch this movie and I was let down by how simplistic the concept is. If you’re going to make a movie with a time traveling concept, it should be amazing. The best part of this movie was the animation. It’s really eye-candy and beautiful for a DreamWorks Animated movie. Not the best from them but just beautiful enough. Overall, this movie will entertain kids more than adults however it will not cringe you as this movie is also enjoyable for adults. If you’re a parent, you will not have a bitter taste of watching this movie with your children.

I liked last two movies from DreamWorks Animations. Besides Disney and Pixer I kind of like this production house because the first ever 3D animation I ever saw was 'Antz', when I was a child. In their 30 movies this is only the second movie based on sci-fi after 'Megamind'. I was familiar with 'Mr. Peabody and Sherman' before, but kind of inconsistent in watching them when it was aired on television. So I expected nothing, but enjoyed watching this movie. A matured story, the cute characters and a pleasant animation, overall an excellent update from the cartoon to the 3D characters. When Disney did same for Micky family I was disappointed a lot. You know 2D animations are kind of jerky animations and that is a different kind of pleasure, but this one was so smooth, I loved it. Mr. Peabody had a regret that he was not adopted when he was a puppy. Now he's an adult dog, also a smart and intelligent. Decides to adopt a boy and names him Sherman. He teaches everything that he knows and tours with him to the different eras for the educational purpose through his invention WABAC, a time-machine. One day in the school Sherman gets humiliated for saying the truth and a big trouble knocks the Mr. Peabody's door. To make everything right a first step had been taken, but accidentally an adventure begins through times and space. A trouble after another follows them and what they need is one solution that can solve all their problems is the rest of the story. ‘‘Every dog should have a boy!’’ If you think it's for kids only referring the 60s animated television series, definitely you are wrong. When you see the characters anyone can feel that way, but once you watch the movie your perspective will change. Many things were taken straight from the series like time travelling adventures. In fact, to say adults can understand the story fully than children. It meets lots of historical events in the original timeline, but the fun part was to see them in an animation. A coming-of-age theme in animation, but was told in a fun adventure. It just fulfilled me of watching all the episodes of the original classic animation short, at a time. Like I said young kids can't get what's happening, but can have fun which delivered consistently throughout with the nice dialogues and locations. I hope they are going to announce a sequel, otherwise it will be a disappointment to know there will be no follow-up for a cute little movie.

I honestly think reviewers are too harsh on certain movies. A good example would be Mr.Peabody and Sherman. Many reviewers criticized the this movie produced by Dream Works animation. As far as I'm concerned, Mr.Peabody and Sherman is a great movie despite its predictable plot and corny jokes. I like how the protagonists, Peabody and Sherman, are portrayed through emotions and speech. Peabody is a smart guy and I love the way he talks about things that only smart people will really understand. The idea of using time travelling and paradoxes as the backbone of a plot is risky, but in this case I feel it worked. The plot did baffle me, but I guess it does not really matter. In conclusion: Graphics: 2.5/2.5 Plot: 2/2.5 Characters: 2.5/2.5 Humour: 1.5/2.5 Therefore I will give it a total score of 8.5 out of 10. When rounded off, it gives me a 9.

I had no idea what to expect with this movie when we walked into the theater. I picked it because my four year-old loves dogs. I could not have picked a better show! It was fun for the whole family. I'm not sure if the four year-old, eight year-old or adults we were with enjoyed it more. The movie was fast paced and it kept all of our attention the entire time. The humor in the movie was great for adults and kids. This one was definitely worth the price of admission and I'm quite certain we will be watching this one again at home.

Ok, So a lot of critics say that this movie is like Jimmy Neutron. I Guess they are wrong.. Because in Jimmy Neutron, I think he did not created a time machine, and I there is not a talking dog with glasses. I Think this is a OK movie.

Very charming movie with well-timed humor and a good take on famous people from history. (I'm talking to you Bill Clinton.) Just cant wait for the sequel!

The only thing matters from Mr. Peabody and Sherman is the use of a fatter-son relationship which is attractive and meaningful because it deals with serious matter that adults will Ike it. For humor well it's funny and fast-paced but for the plot -- it's weak in comparison of Dreamworks' creative works yet like 2010's How to Train Your Dragon and 2001's Shrek.

This is a great movie for all ages. The jokes are almost all related to history, and technically whatever time they are in. Mr Peabody and Sherman's relation ship is great at the start, and then gets a little mixed up. Penny actually takes a long time for you to like her. In fact i think i started liking her at the end of the movie. But anyway, great movie 8/10

My husband and I took our grandchildren, aged 4 and 2 to this movie and we all loved it. It was funny and clever and both children were just glued to it, even the 2 year old girl who normally wouldn't sit still that long. So I recommend anyone of any age could enjoy this movie.

The Animation Is Decent Not Dreamworks' Best But Not The Worst, The Story Is Okay, The Characters Some I Like (I.E Mr. Peabody, Da Vinci, And The Trojan Horse Commander Guy) Some Are OK (I.E Sherman, Penny, King Tut) And The Rest Are Underdeveloped.

If you watched the Rocky & Bullwinkle show, you'll remember this duo. If not, Mr. Peabody is a genius inventor, who's also a dog and Sherman is his human son. They travel thru time in the WABAC machine, but things go awry when Sherman takes a trip on his own. This spunky animated adventure keeps a zippy pace and relies on fun with puns for most of the laffs. Visually, it's colorful, but none of the characters are especially clever or wacky. While there's a spirited energy and humor that appeals on an intellectual level, nothing about the film is outstanding.

4 year old was laughing all through this movie. If she likes it then I like it. The puns and time travel reminded me of when the old cartoon would come on our local station back in the 70's.

I can't believe any of the negative reviews from Critics and the Users or that they saw the same film I did. I can sum up the film with two words: "Absolutely Brilliant"! It is clever, intelligent, and hilarious. If I live long enough, I'm willing to bet that it will beat my record of seeing "Fantasia" 24 times on the big screen. "Frozen" was OK -- "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" was magnificent!

This colorful and interesting animated adventure reminded me of old school DreamWorks films such as "Shrek 1 & 2" "Madagascar" and "Over the Hedge". While it may not be as great as those classic's, it does however provide an intellectual and education value throughout some dumb and chessy moments. Overall, it's a fun and somewhat education animated film that never truly takes itself completely seriously and stupidly. I give it a B!
