Actor and comedian Adam Sandler (Hotel Transylvania, The Wedding Singer) delivers signature laughs in this coming-of-age animated musical comedy about the last year of elementary school -- as seen through the eyes of a class pet. Jaded 74-year-old lizard Leo (Sandler) has been stuck in the same Florida classroom for decades with his terrarium-mate turtle (Bill Burr). When he learns he only has one year left to live, he plans to escape to experience life on the outside but instead gets caught up in the problems of his anxious students -- including an impossibly mean substitute teacher. It ends up being the strangest but most rewarding bucket list ever....

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.

Audience Says

Leo's uplifting message and (mostly) wholesome humor make for an animated movie the whole family can enjoy.

Barry Hertz Globe and Mail Leo is a surprising, touching delight. Packed with witty original songs and threaded with a genuinely affecting narrative that speaks to kids and adults alike, the film earned the entirety of my attention. Jul 26, 2024 Full Review 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 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 Sameen Amer The News International (Pakistan) Too many cooks may spoil the broth but it turns out that three directors can, in fact, make a fun movie, at least if Leo is anything to go by.... Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 7, 2024 Full Review 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 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 Read all reviews

Conor P Adam sandler as Leo is funny Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/21/25 Full Review saylor o We originally watched this because it was only marketed as a family and comedy movie, and we wanted to watch something with our 9 year old sister. And it was, but my 50 year old mom, 15 year old sister, the 9 year old sister, and me(19 year old lad) thought it was absolutely hilarious. We all laughed so hard throughout the whole movie. The attention to detail in this movie was phenomenal and it really was one of the best movies I have seen in a while. There were a few scenes and dialogue that were a little questionable in a kids movie, but it really was pretty clean and family friendly. Would definitely watch again. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/07/25 Full Review Vicenzo C Though it has forgettable songs, Leo is a warm and wholehearted animated film. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/25 Full Review Emery G Absolutely hilarious!!! My kids and I were laughing the whole time. This movie is one of the best comedies for kids and adults equal. It has a great message as well. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/25 Full Review Audience Member Cinematic masterpiece, better than Ratatouille Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/25 Full Review Matthew F My kid loves it and I also found it quite enjoyable. Good lessons for kids and hilarious. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/25 Full Review Read all reviews
