Tara Brady Irish Times Kung Fu Panda director John Stevenson keeps the plot moving at a jaunty pace. Rated: 3/5 May 18, 2018 Full Review Charlotte O'Sullivan London Evening Standard Actually more fun than the original and guaranteed to make under-10s shudder with delight. Rated: 3/5 May 11, 2018 Full Review Ed Potton Times (UK) It's nowhere near as bad as it sounds... Rated: 3/5 May 11, 2018 Full Review Dan Buffa KSDK News (St. Louis) It's a serviceable animated take on a well known tale that also happens to be a sequel. One could call it a movie solely for kids, but you can't even trust them being happy with the product. Nov 10, 2020 Full Review Tom Beasley Flickering Myth Comes together better than any belated sequel to a mostly forgotten family movie probably should. Rated: 3/5 Aug 14, 2020 Full Review Matt Cipolla Film Monthly If you want morbid animation, watch Foodfight. Rated: 1.5/5 Jul 24, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Gnomeo & Juliet is the definition of a movie that didn’t need a sequel. i may have liked the first movie but i did not care to watch Sherlock Holmes gnomes for 86 minutes. the songs were good though, i’ll give it that. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/24/24 Full Review Zuzanna G It was an epic experience, but i really hoped that Sherlock and Watson would passionately make out at the end of this epic movie. I'm definitely going to recommend this piece of art to my friends and family and probably buy a gnome to my garden. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/11/24 Full Review Noelle K This movie was a horrible sequel to a wonderful movie that I enjoyed as a kid . This movie was utterly disappointing. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/02/24 Full Review SkyRo P #MovieReview #SherlockGnomes 🌟 🌟 🌟 The movie was cute as it could be. I was upset with the lack of creative aspect. Juliet and Gnomeo had a good role but felt like side characters. The bad guy Mortey was my favorite ever ..... So thats my favorite. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/27/23 Full Review Adair B Okay, hear me out. I get it. I've been there. I see a sequel of a random and honestly forgettable kids film and I feel my blood boil from seeing good U.S. dollars being virtually burnt for a film with no creativity or plot direction. But Sherlock Gnomes (2018) is different. This film has everything- romance, suspense, and a mystery to solve. The villain was amazing and soooo girly pop I could absolutely not take my eyes off the screen. So initially when the film started I thought that Juliet was a total B-word; It made sense that she spent all her time in the garden with trees because she had a total stick up her a**. But what makes Sherlock Gnomes such a good sequel is the character development- Juliet is able to pull that stick out and save her relationship. Gnomeo barley has any screen time/ plot relevance but he is a king and we love him. Now, onto the subject of Sherlock. He was phenomenal 😍😍😍. He really learned to show respect for others which was great to see, he is so silly to watch and I love how shiny and kickable he looked. By kickable I mean he looks like I could just give him a lil kick and feel so much joy 😚. I love his tiny soul patch. Peak character design, the animators knew what they were doing. But this gnome is more than just a body, he also has brains that he uses for super funny shenanigans like saving gnomes. He is accompanied by the Watson Gnome, and I honestly feel so sad for Watson. His character is the equivalent of a cold wet saltine. [SPOILER WARNING ⚠️⚠️⚠️] when he is being psychoanalyzed by Moriarty (the main villain, an evil pie), the second hand embarrassment was REAL. That man (or should I say gnome) looked like a complete idiot. I wanted to give him a hug :( and maybe he should not have mass kidnapped hundreds of garden gnomes but Sherlock was being self-centered and hyper focusing on his enemy :((. anyway back to the review. Uhhh yea the top critics didn't like it because they hate fun its 5/5 stars for people who love fun :)) ✨✨ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/11/23 Full Review Nate C It may share its funny moments but it never happens enough Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
