"One would think the greatest mistake a rebooted Peanuts movie could make would be updating the characters—and yet? This remake is 100 percent authentic to its roots (other than being CG-animated), and while occasionally cute, it’s also 100 percent tedious. It’s basically a rehash of every classic Peanuts strip you’ve read a billion times before, providing nothing new for adults or a single reason why children who are new to the franchise should care. The six-year-old I went with summed up this disconnect perfectly when asked, “What did you think?” and she replied, “Where were the talking peanuts?”"-Wm.™ Steven Humphrey
