What to Know

Critics Consensus

Slick animation, catchy songs, and some winning voice work from a cast led by Adam Sandler help Leo strike an uneasy balance between satirical and sweet.

Leo (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Robert Levin Newsday "Leo" has a positive message and some first-rate Sandler voice work. For many viewers, that's probably enough. But honesty compels us to note that there's a much better movie in there somewhere. Rated: 2.5/4 Jan 31, 2024 Full Review Leo (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Sophie Butcher Empire Magazine Fun, warm, but meandering and too-long, Leo is an animated adventure with kindness and celebrating individuality on its mind – and is a great showcase for Sandler’s voice talents. Rated: 3/5 Nov 27, 2023 Full Review Leo (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News It’s no classic, but it is funny and endearing. Kids will love it. Rated: 2.5/4 Nov 27, 2023 Full Review Leo (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Luke Goodsell ABC News (Australia) The star’s childlike naïveté is well suited to this pre-teen world, where the tone meets kids on their own terms — and the life lessons are delivered with a refreshing lack of sentimentality. Apr 10, 2024 Full Review Leo (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Shawn Edwards Fox 4 Kansas City This animated musical, called Leo, is way more heartwarming than I was expecting, but it is as silly as I thought it would be. Rated: 3/5 Dec 27, 2023 Full Review Leo (2023) | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Sean P. Means The Movie Cricket “Leo” is a simple, yet effective, animated movie, whose gentle humor disguises a sweet parable about learning from one’s elders — even the scaly ones. Rated: 3/4 Dec 23, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
