Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
Charming; still the best of the 'Peanuts' feature films
Kalamazoo Gazette
Schulz's script maintains much of the irony of the strips, but the injections of whimsy put its appeal uneasily between adults and children.

Time Out
The only really dreadful contribution to the film is that of Rod McKuen, whose three songs can barely be endured.
New York Times
Rating: 5/5 --
Classic Peanuts film is as charming and relevant as ever.

Common Sense Media
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
It's a colorful, graphically clever recounting of a story arc from the strip.

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.
