Reviews

Washington Post -
“Thunder” doesn’t boast a distinctive look or a cast of famous voices. But its characters are engaging and its action sequences exhilarating.

|
CineVue -
The humour is scant and there's no real risk of peril (Grant George's nephew and his dastardly plans seem more psychopathic than threatening). Yet when you have a film that's colourful, easy on the eye and full of positive messages about friendship and trust, then kids will be happy.

|
Empire -
A curious mix of Britpop music cues and moppet-bait storytelling makes for a diverting, if derivative kids' animation.
|
|
Time Out London -
The 3D effects are dazzling, but the script creaks and the characters are thin.
|
|
Total Film -
Lawrence’s mechanised menagerie and the directors’ stereoscopic smarts entertain most.
