The School for Good and Evil Ratings & Reviews

FilmWeek (LAist)
Amy Nicholson
The movie really is star-studded, but it has almost no momentum.
The Mary Sue
Chelsea Steiner
You're left bored, tired, and wondering how you could have spent your precious few hours on this Earth watching this absolute dreck.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
Simultaneously sluggish and rushed, crammed with characters that make barely an impression, extraneous episodes that just weigh the narrative down and a welter of special-effects action more tedious than awesome.
We're Watching What?!
Dana Han-Klein
Somewhat overlong and skewing a bit juvenile (and probably would've been better as a series) it is as a fairly fun fairy-tale fused romp with a bevy of top tier talent and some decent newcomers. Particular kudos to Wylie's charming performance.
Screen Rant
Mae Abdulbaki
The film doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it's a lot of fun and has plenty of heart thanks to its leading performances and solid character development.
Paste Magazine
Kathy Michelle Chacón
Netflix's latest venture into the teen fantasy market is an agonizing two-and-a-half-hour experience drawn out by lackluster VFX and familiar narrative elements.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
An exhaustingly long, overstuffed movie that probably would've worked better as a TV series.
In Review Online
Selina Lee
This bland, reductive slog is such a bore that even casual fantasy fans are better off whisking themselves back to Hogwarts for the millionth time.
Punch Drunk Critics
Travis Hopson
But this sad, overlong, and unremarkable film doesn't even rate on the same level as Sky High.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
The School for Good and Evil ends with the promise of further chapters, but I'd be OK with closing the book without turning any more pages.
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
Harry Potter meets Descendants with a dash of Romeo and Juliet in The School for Good and Evil. And yes, it is as overstuffed as that sounds.
Boston Globe
Mark Feeney
Pretty much all the young actors here must own a lot of crypto, since they certainly have nothing to do with any gold standard.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Feig's film is nowhere near as fully realized or as creatively satisfying as I kept hoping it was going to be, making The School for Good and Evil a mixed bag of magic tricks.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
Mostly, there's a tired, by-the-numbers quality to much of what transpires, even if the underlying lessons seek to expand on the familiar notions of heroism and love.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
The School for Good and Evil is never as much of an eyesore as the latter-day Tim Burton movies that appear to have inspired it, but its garish colors and flagrantly foul CGI wizardry only contribute to the movie's pervasive tackiness.
AV Club
Jack Smart
Until someone figures out how to innovate on delivering the shiny, "pew pew!" magic required of action-fantasy YA and its ilk, properties like this one will fail to distinguish themselves.
New York Times
Maya Phillips
A muddle of clichés and inconsistencies with just enough charm and cleverness to keep you watching.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Sure, it's a "Harry Potter" rip-off, but had Feig taken the time to let the film breathe, it might have stood on its own.
The Hollywood Reporter
David Rooney
This is a uniquely tiresome slog - madly over-plotted, thuddingly derivative, insanely overlong and slathered in a big symphonic score that strives to infuse momentum into a saga with minimal emotional stakes.
