Sing Reviews
The songs function as hinges, but it's clear they were imposed to be the engine of the script and not the other way around; Each musical number is tedious... [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 4/10 | Jan 10, 2023
It possesses a cheery disposition that's downright infectious.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 22, 2021
It remains low on substance, but all concerns about a lack of smart subtext fly out the window when you're enjoying the spectacle of a pig vamping to Taylor Swift while dressed as some sort of disco Batgirl.
| Original Score: 3/5 | May 4, 2021
While beautifully animated is too concerned with being a crowd pleaser to be about much of anything.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 3, 2021
These numbers don't serve much purpose. Neither does the movie.

The story exists solely to string together a series of song-and-dance performances.
| Original Score: 2/10 | Dec 5, 2020
Sing is one of the biggest surprises of 2016, not because it is especially great, but because it is much better than a movie about singing, talking animals ever needs to be.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 23, 2020
Sing is a good-natured, well-intentioned bit of jukebox fluff that is at its most frustrating when you can see how it could have possibly gone in a more interesting direction.

One thing we've learned about Illumination this year is that they can make really great animated films that doesn't have one minion in it.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 11, 2020
There aren't enough praises to sing about Sing... Sing is pure wow and will have you floating on air and grinning from ear to ear. And a koala voiced by Matthew McConaughey? Perfection.

The key of 'Sing' is, therefore, its chorus of animals, often developed with a great sense of humor, promoting laughter in themselves and not necessarily through funny situations. [Full Review in Spanish]

Sing might be passable in a lesser year of animation but the fundamental flaws in the film kneecap it from the beginning.

There is absolutely no reason the characters in Sing are animals...the plot would function if they didn't have tails and scales, and the film doesn't even bother to whip up much in the way of animal-based comedy.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 8, 2019
I walked out humming some tunes and having an over all good time.
| Original Score: B | Feb 22, 2019
Understands the unironic way the premise of talent contest reality shows sincerely connects with people, and why this particular arrangement of tunes and character stock-types works even though (indeed because) they've become "cheezy" and overly familiar.
| Original Score: 3 | Nov 4, 2018
There are pleasures to be found in Sing. The question is how willing people are to sit through some tired sitcom plotting to get to it.
| Original Score: B | Oct 19, 2018
It's just amazing that [the cast] can act vocally and sing.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Oct 5, 2018
Energetically warm-hearted musical that is cinematic proof that Illumination has more stories to tell outside "Despicable Me."
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Aug 30, 2018
Sure, they can all sing. But that's not really the point.
| Aug 27, 2018
"Sing" is two-dimensional and this gets in the way of it being any more than a blip on the radar of memorability.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 22, 2018
