Grizzly (Xzibit) and Stork (Anthony Anderson) are critter cops who are investigating a disturbance of the peace at between Granny (Glenn Close), her granddaughter Little Red Riding Hood (Anne Hathaway), a Big Bad Wolf (Patrick Warburton) and a Woodsman (James Belushi). As the duo interviews the parties involved they suspect Granny is not as helpless as she lets on, Red has hidden motives, Wolf is not much of a predator and the Woodsman might be as dense as the tress he cuts down.

Critics Consensus

This fractured fairytale doesn't have the wit or animation quality to compete with the likes of the Shrek franchise.

Somnambulistic from start to finish, it's a film whose title clearly refers to its paying-customer audience.

Despite its occasionally unfinished feel, Hoodwinked will probably keep everyone (adults and kids) entertained for its very brief running time.

Someone give these folks a real budget so they can make a movie that looks as good as it sounds.

I often like to call this the best movie with the worst animation. It looks terrible, but the film itself is great nonetheless.

It simply offers nothing new to the genre.

Simply not worth the effort or expense of a family night out at the movies.

This movie pops with great dialogue dealing with everything fairytales! I remembered it when I was a kid and like it, but recently I rewatched on streaming and and was smiling the whole movie! The jokes keep coming in this movie but don’t make a mockery the story’s you grew up on. The music and lyrics are original to this movie cover many different styles. The animation was done cheaply and is off sometimes but it also adds to the charm of the movie and after 5min you don’t notice it. GREAT voice cast that fits every character. I would give 5/5: cleaver, fun, funny, short, and a pretty good mystery! 👍👍👍👍👍

The animation is terrible but you gotta love this movie. I knew it'd be a banger the second i heard Patrick Warburton's voice from the big bad wolf

Absolutely in the top 5 favorite kids movies! It’s an absolute fever dream of a kids movie, and I love it! So much of this was perfect! 1. The characters were very well-done. Every major character goes beyond their typical portrayal, with a deeper character motive and unique personality. 2. The overall story and concept was very creative, and I love the creative liberties they took! The dialogue was good for the medium. 3. The audio was perfect! The voice acting, the music choices, etc., were excellent! The only downside to this movie is that the animation quality was low, but you get used to it as you watch. 10/10 would recommend.

This movie is literally one of the best animations of the 2000s. I grew up watching it. It needs to be back on Netflix.
