Beneath Easter Island, in a giant factory that manufactures the world's Easter candy, the popular rabbit is preparing to pass the mantle to his son, E.B. (Russell Brand). But E.B. has no interest in the job and would rather be a drummer. He runs away to Los Angeles, where an unemployed slacker named Fred O'Hare (James Marsden) accidentally runs into him. Feigning injury, E.B. tricks Fred into giving him shelter, but an oversized chick is planning a coup back on Easter Island.
It's impressively animated, but Hop 's script is so uninspired that not even James Marsden's frantic mugging can give it any bounce.

Hop seems to think filling out the formula and being super-duper eager-to-please is enough. Hobbling along, this bunny just ain't funny. |

| 180648 | Philip French | Guardian | Rotten | — | 2011-04-04T04:01:58Z | 2011-04-04 04:01:58 | It's a combination of the worst movies about trouble in Santa Claus's north pole toy factory and a version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory lethally laced with sugar. |

| 180673 | Kirk Honeycutt | The Hollywood Reporter | Fresh | — | 2011-04-01T05:15:19Z | 2011-04-01 05:15:19 | A fun and funny mix of live action and animation that puts the hop back into Easter. |
| 180672 | Jeffrey M. Anderson | Combustible Celluloid | Rotten | 2.5/4 | 2011-04-01T05:15:19Z | 2011-04-01 05:15:19 | Thus we have Hop, which I'm sad to say isn't all that bad, and isn't all that good. It's as if it knew it had the holiday all sewn up and didn't even bother to try very hard. |
| 180677 | Eric D. Snider | EricDSnider.com | Rotten | C | 2011-04-01T05:15:18Z | 2011-04-01 05:15:18 | While the world's desperate cries for more sequels to The Santa Clause go unanswered, Universal Pictures brings us the next best thing. |
| 180676 | Anthony Quinn | Independent (UK) | Rotten | 1/5 | 2011-04-01T05:15:18Z | 2011-04-01 05:15:18 | Flop would be closer. |
| 180675 | Peter Debruge | Variety | Fresh | — | 2011-04-01T05:15:18Z | 2011-04-01 05:15:18 | Hop integrates animated characters into live-action settings, relying on director Tim Hill to handle the logistics of convincingly blending both worlds. |
| 180678 | David Edwards | Daily Mirror (UK) | Rotten | 1/5 | 2011-04-01T05:14:33Z | 2011-04-01 05:14:33 | Even the most undemanding of children won't enjoy this sickly confection that would have benefited from better one-liners. Or a dose of myxomatosis. |
| 180679 | Derek Malcolm | London Evening Standard | Rotten | 2/5 | 2011-04-01T04:59:16Z | 2011-04-01 04:59:16 | It may be okay for kids under 10 but this anodyne movie will try the patience of the family audience for whom it strives mightily. |
| 180680 | Alex Zane | The Sun (UK) | Rotten | 2/5 | 2011-04-01T04:53:08Z | 2011-04-01 04:53:08 | Marsden has charisma to spare and is clearly game for the many pratfalls, but the more fantastical AND entirely animated sections of the film set in the factory are far superior. |
| 180681 | Kate Stables | Total Film | Fresh | 3/5 | 2011-04-01T04:52:21Z | 2011-04-01 04:52:21 | Witty scripting spices up a sugary scenario, giving this fluffy family comedy some adult-pleasing bite. It ain't Shrek, but it ain't dreck either. |
| 180682 | Joe Williams | St. Louis Post-Dispatch | Rotten | 1.5/4 | 2011-04-01T04:48:51Z | 2011-04-01 04:48:51 | It's supposed to be sweet, but "Hop" is a headache waiting to happen. |

| 180684 | Chris Hewitt | St. Paul Pioneer Press | Rotten | 2/4 | 2011-04-01T04:37:10Z | 2011-04-01 04:37:10 | "Hop" feels less like an attempt to tell a story than an attempt to reach out to as many marketing demographics as possible. |
| 180685 | Mike Scott | Times-Picayune | Fresh | 2.5/4 | 2011-04-01T04:22:46Z | 2011-04-01 04:22:46 | It will charm the training pants off of the audience for which it is intended -- without leaving parents constantly checking their watches. |
| 180686 | Kyle Smith | New York Post | Rotten | 1.5/4 | 2011-04-01T04:15:43Z | 2011-04-01 04:15:43 | Presented with the opportunity to do the first-ever big-budget Easter bunny flick mixing live action and animation, "Hop" gives us . . . a bunny who poops jelly beans. |
| 180687 | Jolene Mendez | Entertainment Spectrum | Fresh | 3/5 | 2011-03-31T21:16:17Z | 2011-03-31 21:16:17 | "Hop" may not be the best holiday live animation, but its attempt is not terribly flawed. |
| 180688 | Robin Clifford | Reeling Reviews | Rotten | C+ | 2011-03-31T20:50:20Z | 2011-03-31 20:50:20 | I think mom, dad and the kids will have fun. |

| 180691 | Catherine Bray | Film4 | Rotten | 1.5/5 | 2011-03-31T19:26:23Z | 2011-03-31 19:26:23 | This Easter, celebrate with a slice of rabbit pie at home while avoiding this film. |
| 180692 | Nell Minow | Beliefnet | Rotten | C- | 2011-03-31T19:24:54Z | 2011-03-31 19:24:54 | Despite some surface appeal, it is as hollow in the center as a chocolate rabbit. |
| 180693 | Dustin Putman | TheFilmFile.com | Rotten | 2/4 | 2011-03-31T19:18:28Z | 2011-03-31 19:18:28 | There is no denying how much better it might have been with an extra screenplay polish and a greater willingness from director Tim Hill to think outside the box. |
| 180694 | Peter Bradshaw | Guardian | Rotten | 1/5 | 2011-03-31T19:16:24Z | 2011-03-31 19:16:24 | A soulless and depressing film, with plasticky production design. |
| 180695 | Matt Stevens | E! Online | Rotten | C | 2011-03-31T19:10:11Z | 2011-03-31 19:10:11 | Kiddies might be eggcited by the critters and candy, but for most peeps, this bunny-buddy comedy delivers a mixed basket. |
| 180696 | Mick LaSalle | San Francisco Chronicle | Rotten | 2/4 | 2011-03-31T18:47:44Z | 2011-03-31 18:47:44 | A fairly undistinguished but pleasant and easy-to-take holiday movie, with slow spots and silly spots and a handful of moments of inspiration. |
| 180697 | Henry Fitzherbert | Daily Express (UK) | Fresh | 3/5 | 2011-03-31T17:38:22Z | 2011-03-31 17:38:22 | Silly, energetic and mildly amusing. |
| 180698 | Claudia Puig | USA Today | Fresh | — | 2011-03-31T17:26:37Z | 2011-03-31 17:26:37 | Hop will win audiences over with its goofy charm. |
