Here's what the critics are saying:
It's engaging enough, driving home the familiar message of following one's dreams and the less hackneyed theme of facing one's fears. But it feels far too familiar. — Claudia Puig, USA Today
As with "Cars," the world of "Planes" feels safe. A little too safe, perhaps. — Betsy Sharkey, Los Angeles Times
“Planes” is an almost instantly forgettable adventure taking the all-too-familiar flight pattern of the underdog that dreams of doing something his kind never does. — Richard Roeper, The Detroit News
