Indeed, a video game is what Pets on a Train mostly resembles – treating a whimsically arbitrary, blatantly derivative plot line as the basis for a series of logic puzzles, which the characters must band together to solve before time runs out.

The concept and the main character have a lot of potential, but they are overwhelmed by a cluttered storyline.

3/5

Alongside playful nods to Die Hard and witty parodies of disaster-chasing reportage, the result mixes fast-moving fun and train-based peril with breezy charm.

While the movie has some sweet moments and funny bits, much of the plot concocted by directors Benoit Daffis and Jean-Christian Tassy is peppered with some scary action that might be frightening for some smaller kids in the audience.

2/5

For a film about an out-of-control high-speed train, this animated action comedy is pretty pedestrian.

Pets on a Train is a lightweight and predictable animated film about cargoed pets on a runaway train. The movie has engaging visuals and a cute story, with some biting satire of attention-seeking people who exploit animals and kids for audience growth.

I did like the small cat and the small raccoon and I did not like the big raccoon because he was so mean

This was a great movie. Lots of energy, Kept my four year old engaged, and that's not easy. I only didn't like the witchcraft movies that were in the previews. Someone needs to be careful of what previews are shown to kids. There is nothing innocent about glorifying witches. However, the movie itself was really good.
