Customer Ratings & Reviews

Growing up I enjoyed the Peabody's Improbable History segments of the Rocky and Bullwinkle Show. This film feels like a decent contemporary retooling of those segments, giving more depth to the titular characters, and granting the film a surprisingly touching emotional center. There are plenty of nods to the original shorts, and the cast delivers an excellent performance. The animation is top notch, exaggerated and comedic, albeit much more fluid and detailed than the shorts the film was inspired by. The special features on the disc are geared more toward the younger target audience of the film, but there are some of the original classic shorts included for the nostalgic. The picture quality and sound quality are awesome, crisp and vibrant. The film has unfortunately been overshadowed by some strong works among the animated studios this year, but is well worth a watch.

I haven't heard of this movie but remember these guys from my childhood. I bought this for my daughter who is just under 2 years old to keep her entertained when there is nothing else that will distract her from throwing a fit. Well, it is a little too advanced for her to understand but the interesting graphics and movements definitely keep her entertained for a little. What surprised me is that I actually thought this movie was great. The only reason why I can't give it 5 stars is because this is more advance for most kids under 7 so...it might not work for everyone you think it should. If you loved these guys in your childhood memories, you will most likely love this movie.

I grew up with Rocky & Bullwinkle and of course Peabody's Improbable History. It was nice to see many of the elements from the show in this movie. The Way Back got one overdone major overhaul, it was always a simple kind of silly contraption which had it's own appeal. The movie was good, but really, Mr. Peabody losing his cool? For shame writers! Mr. Peabody was the epitome of calm, rational, and logical behavior and cool as a cucumber no matter what. At least the corny jokes that made you cringe were kept intact. I must have missed the guy with the cleaning cart at the end of the parade.

What is not to like about this movie. It's made for kids. The movie is witty, cute, and surprising yet cleverly funny with a little touch of heart perfectly for kids. I'd recommend this movie to all parents who have kids. The story is simple but yet, it has a subliminal message of self worth, friendships, and conquering fears, self doubt, and even bully. Graphic is top notch. A great buy for everyone especially for the fans.

I remember watching Peabody and Sherman shorts that were throughout episodes of The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show as a kid and even 20 something years later I still find them to be very funny and I'm glad a movie was made. My 7 year old nephew also thoroughly enjoyed the movie. I bought him this and the matching lunch box as part of his 7th Bday present. I would recommend adding this movie to any family's collection.

Bought this for my husband for Christmas, he had loved the old cartoon series from his childhood. To my surprise, it was not done just like cartoon characters & was pretty well written. Storyline (yes, there was one!) kept him amused & he loved this DVD more than his other gifts. So, isn't just for kids, in fact, young kids may not "get it." Enjoyable movie though.

If' you're into 3D, this is a title you want to add. When they travel through time it's like you're riding inside a rollercoaster. I enjoyed the movie overall. It is a little slow in places but picks up quickly. I would not recommend it for small children because it depicts some violent parts of history (in a comical way, but still...probably not appropriate).

I grew up watching Peabody and Shermon and my kids did too thru dvd. We were all pleased with the movie adaptation of the genius dog who adopts a boy. complete w time travel on the way back machine and all the silly puns that were so great on the tv show. very touching story line to boot about the inportance of a father/son relationship. highly recommend.

I remember Mr. Peabody and the Way-ack machine from when I was a kid. I suppose the nostalgia is writing this, but it was an enjoyable film that I shared with my grandkids. They liked it too!

I saw this movie awhile ago and found it enjoyable. I liked Rocky and Bullwinkle growing up so the nostalgia factor is there. The main reason for buying this was to show it to my son and see if he would enjoy it. Hopefully he will but I will still watch if he doesn't

I was not a huge fan of the cartoon growing up, I am not sure I really remember it after having watched the movie. The movie was a fun rider through the artists interpretation of the eras and the message I think is one we need to remember often as we interact with others.

I grew up when the original series was on TV with the Rocky & Bullwinkle Show. They did a nice adaptation, bringing it up to what a more modern audience would want to see and I really did enjoy the plotline and voice work...seeing Napoleon tased was a hoot! Great movie for the adults and the kids!

My kids loved this movie. I enjoyed it as well. I remember the show when they were on with Rocky and Bullwinkle. There are laughs and some pretty good action scenes for an animated movie. It was worth going to see at the theater and my kids (7 and 11) have already watched it twice.

This is a nice remake of the classic Mr. Peobody & Sherman that was featured on The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show starting in the late 60's. It has been refreshed with a new story and solid voice acting. Overall, this is a good movie for the entire family and very enjoyable.

My kids have watched this movie several times. This particular package is fully-loaded with a DVD, Blu-Ray, 3D Blu-Ray and digital version of the movie. My kids also enjoy being able to watch the old Mr. Peabody and Sherman segments from the Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.

I was skeptical when I purchased this movie, mainly because of all of the subpar remakes of the shows from my childhood. Once I watched it, however, I was pleasantly surprised. It has the classic elements of the show, with a fun, unique twist of its own.

wasnt sure how this would turn out but its pretty enjoyable

As a fan of the old shorts, I thought they would botch this one up... I'm looking at you 'Rocky and Bullwinkle'. But this was actually a really good movie. Touching and funny. And there were quite a few nods to the old shorts that I wasn't quite expecting.

I bought this to watch with my 13 year old Granddaughter and we both loved it. The 3D was very good and clear on my Sony 4K 3D TV. I was impressed that she (known for getting bored easily) did not lose interest at any time. That says a lot.

I had originally rented this movie for my 4 yr old son from Redbox. I wasn't really expecting anything other than another meh animated movie. Boy was I wrong!! I enjoyed every minute of it the same as my son. We had to get it for our collection!
