Critics consensus

“The Indian in the Cupboard gussies up its classic source material in modern effects without losing sight of the timeless themes at the heart of the story.”

RTNewsweekNov 4, 2008

The didacticism is, for the most part, gracefully meshed with the storytelling, and the special effects never take over the show.

R

Roger Ebert

RTChicago Sun-TimesJan 1, 2000

By making the fantasy real, the movie unleashes all sorts of considerations it doesn't really deal with, and the material edges closer to horror than it probably intends.

Even kids will be asking for their money back after seeing this incredibly stupid story.

RTChristian Science MonitorMar 30, 2019

The story is sensitively told, reminding young moviegoers that history is made of real people, not the caricatures who inhabit Hollywood myths.
