Imagine That Ratings & Reviews
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Cutesy? My pain was acutesy as the entire plot yawned before me.
Chicago Tribune
Gary Goldstein
Fortunately, the picture's not-so-secret weapon, star Eddie Murphy, gives this uneven effort a reason for being.
San Francisco Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
Imagine That has a few nagging problems, none of which is Eddie Murphy's fault.
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
If there were any doubts that Murphy can still be as boldly funny and charismatic in the flesh as he has been when providing the voice of Donkey in the Shrek franchise, Imagine That helps allay them.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
Unfortunately, Evan's transformation rings tinny. The music guides us to the appropriate moods (This is magical! This is goofy!), because Murphy's performance doesn't.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
If anything, the movie is almost more for adults than it is for kids. The first half to two-thirds in particular are quiet, peaceful and beautifully subtle.
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
Director Karey Kirkpatrick mines laughter from human fallibility, aided by a strong supporting cast that includes Martin Sheen as the boss and Thomas Haden Church as an office rival.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Murphy rises to every occasion, not only with the crisp wit that has long been his hallmark, but with restraint and tenderness that serve him well.
Washington Post
John Anderson
A movie that takes a major step toward reasserting Murphy's place as the comic heir not just to such obvious models as Richard Pryor but to Groucho Marx.
Beliefnet
Nell Minow
Murphy limits himself to just one role and seems to enjoy portraying the straight-laced but superbly professional Danielson and allowing him to thaw without overdoing it.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
It's too bad there's little to distinguish this predictable tale from any other comedy about an overly busy father who finally connects with his child.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Shahidi's and Murphy's scenes together have such warmth, tenderness, and joy that they elevate this cookie-cutter comedy into homemade fun.
CinemaBlend
Katey Rich
The poor little girl's imaginary friends are so boring that they give stock tips.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Imagine That is an innocuous, at times charming and frequently sweet, family film with engaging performances, a straightforward moral for parents everywhere, and enough genuine giggles to keep both parents and their young charges amused.
Arizona Republic
Suzanne Condie Lambert
The actor's scenes with movie daughter Shahidi have an undeniable sweetness, and Shahidi is adorable in a role that easily could have seemed manipulative.
Slant Magazine
Ryan Stewart
In its minimalism that borders on self-parody, Imagine That is reminiscent of M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
For the first time since The Nutty Professor, Eddie Murphy successfully mixes his adult and kid-film personas -- imagine that.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
Given his growing track record of odious kiddie fare, it's no surprise to see Eddie Murphy squandering his talents as another in a long line of movie dads who are too wrapped up in their jobs to pay attention to their kids.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
Eddie Murphy in another mediocre family comedy? Imagine that.
