Some of the critics quotes are:

"Goosebumps is positioned to be the first live-action theatrical horror movie for an entire generation of emerging moviegoers."


"So unexpectedly deft at balancing humor, drama and scares that it seems destined to become a Halloween classic, if only at slumber parties."

"There's a streak of old-fashioned B-movie spooky playfulness here, and when actual, motivated characters are on screen it's delightful."

"Goofily self-aware and wholesomely boisterous, it's a children's picture whose sense of spooky fun readily diverts from its quibble-worthy messaging."

"An amusing, fearlessly over-the-top screen rendering of the book franchise."


:ehh: May have to just forget Jack Black is the lead and go see this.

The show and books were great so it's almost impossible to f up the movie.

Pan is getting panned though. Just as I expected.

The show paled in comparison to the books. For my generation, those were probably the first chapter books a lot of us read. The show was cool at the time but I'm sure it didn't hold up over the years. Tales From the Crypt was a much better show.
