Rating: 3/4 --
The appeal of Schultz's pop philosophy hasn't faded in forty years: this kind of sincerity can't be faked.
Groucho Reviews
Rating: 3/4 --
It's the humor that carries the day -- that, and the nostalgic twinges at seeing the beloved comic characters going through the usual routines familiar from the long-running strip.

Creative Loafing
An hour and a half is a long time for any child -- or beagle -- to be amusing, and the whimsy that attempts to fill the time frequently falters.

Rating: B- --
The popular comic strip was made into a nice, Oscar-nominated big-screen entertainment.

Schulz's script maintains much of the irony of the strips, but the injections of whimsy put its appeal uneasily between adults and children.

Rating: A --
"A Boy Named Charlie Brown" is a fun learning experience. It was for me and millions of other kids in the early 1970's. It has a great message and an uncompromising way of making its point at the end. Kids need this movie.

Movie Chambers
The only really dreadful contribution to the film is that of Rod McKuen, whose three songs can barely be endured.
