  1. Refreshingly anti-princess and sweet without degrading into sugary, Ramona and Beezus animates Ramona's frequent flights of fancy with DIY-like sequences that literalize, quite charmingly, how a kid colors the world.

    Straining for a timeless, family-friendly tone, Allen winds up with something closer to an unironically -- i.e. absurdly -- wholesome rehash of "Leave it to Beaver."

    The film is too frenetically paced and clean to quite recreate the magic of their source material, but it does often face these issues in the same admirably head-on fashion.
  4. While its cast delivers uniformly breezy performances, most everything else about Ramona's move to the multiplex feels unremarkable.

    I love it!! Gomez,Corbett, King, Duhammel all cast sweet and funny real family movie so good.
  2. It is utterly predictable, but the film is surprisingly well acted by the young Selena Gomez, it is funny, and is undeniably sweet. I give this surprisingly good movie 78% of a good movie. Expand
  3. I was suprised how Selena Gomez could actually act throughout this boring, cheezy movie. She aced her part more than any other actor in "Ramona and Beezus". However, that's the sole good thing the film can boast about. Expand

    Selena Gomez is beautiful but the movie ain't anything fantastic.
