Reviews


75
Entertainment Weekly - Lindsey Bahr
Alexander is pleasantly devoid of the vulgarity and too-current pop culture references that are the default mode for many contemporary live-action kids' pics, and its earnest celebration of family gives the movie a comforting throwback vibe.
67
Austin Chronicle - Marjorie Baumgarten
As the parents of four, Steve Carell and Jennifer Garner are a good match, her energetic intensity mixing nicely with his laid-back demeanor, and both underplaying their inherent adorableness.
63
McClatchy-Tribune News Service - Roger Moore
It’s just competent, light entertainment.
60
The Hollywood Reporter - Todd McCarthy
The homily-laden wrap-up, stressing the upside of bad days, is enough to make you hold your nose, but it only lasts a moment, which is suggestive of the way Arteta and the cast provide the energy and momentum to get the job done but not overstay their welcome.
60
Variety - Justin Chang
A passable, tolerable, not unbearable, totally inoffensive adaptation of Judith Viorst’s beloved 1972 children’s book.
