2/4
Its lack of a compelling storyline and overreliance on so-so slapstick will limit its appeal to easily distracted preschoolers. Go to Full Review

If being innocuous were a crime, Gooby would cause Canada to reinstate the death penalty pronto. Go to Full Review

This should be, by all accounts, a horror movie. It is instead a Canadian family comedy. So, you know, same difference. Go to Full Review
Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru Apr 21, 2009
6.0/10
Entertaining for kids while slightly corny and silly for adults, but it's often harmless, bighearted and filled with inspirational messages about friendship, hope and the importance of family which everyone, young and old, can appreciate. Go to Full Review
Loey Lockerby Kansas City Star Apr 17, 2009
1/4
Instead of inspiring children to be brave and loving, it will most likely send them cowering under the covers in terror. They've already got Chucky movies for that. Go to Full Review

Luke S Nov 5, 2018 I loved this moive, as everybody knows Canada makes amazing movies and the fact that they produced this masterpiece in a merrily 5 hours makes me cry. I think Im going to burn my bible and start worshiping Gooby much love - Gooby's biggest fan See more
May 18, 2018 This movie is so bad!! For whatever reason my little one loved it and watched it over and over...made me crazy! I just discovered it again on the movie network...so as soon as she is home from school (grade 4 now) I'll be putting it on 500 times in a row...haha payback time!! Seriously though, it truly is a terrible movie...the characters are all irritating in their own way. Eugene Levy is probably the worst of the bunch! See more
