Produced by the team responsible for Disney hits like The Rock and Armageddon, this is a family flick that won't hold back on action or knee-slapping gags - presented in Disney Digital 3D. Taking the idea of experimental guinea pigs to new extremes, G-Force features an elite secret-agent task-force of lovable rodents. The team are dispatched to sniff out a baddie who intends to take over the world using manipulated household appliances.

This film is reviewed by Flicks.co.nz's newest and youngest critics: the Goodchild family! Mum Rachel Goodchild and her daughters Susie (8), and Becky (6).
There are movies designed for both adults and kids. Then there are the ones for kids alone and G-Force certainly falls into that basket. I have to admit I was impressed by the 3D – It added far more interest to the movie for me. At first I was disappointed that the glasses didn't fit the three year old, but after having a few freaky “oh, that was close” moments, I was pleased she wasn't wearing them.
My girls felt it was something boys would prefer. There were a few girls behind me who said it was way too scary but mine are pretty sensitive and none of them flinched so I think that puts it in the safe zone. G-Force is a fun, cute, light-hearted movie starring rodents. It’s good for kids but not so great for adults.
Susie (8):
I liked the movie but in 3D it can feel a little surprising as everything comes at you. I think it's better for kids who don't mind scary movies as there are some bits that were a little freaky. My favourite part was when the rodents got adopted from the pet shop.
Becky (6):
I liked how the rodents could talk and they always had a plan to escape. When two of them rode a skateboard it was especially funny. The 3D glasses made it feel like it was very close to me. I am not too sure I liked that as it made it a bit scarier. But the movie was good.
It was so cool, I just loved it. I would so watch it again. It was A GOOD part where the Guinea pigs got to ride in these plastic balls that Ben had made for them. IT WAS THE RIDE OF A LIFE TIME. GO WhOeVeR WROUT GGGG-FOOORCE
A pleasant, inoffensive 3-D animated farce about a team of superspy gophers.
Absolutely thrilling fun, if you're 8.
There's seldom a dull moment -- but nor are there any that allow viewers young or old to invest in its elite team of furry characters to any satisfying or lasting degree despite the presence of an energetic voice cast.
Easily the best 3D actioner about guinea pig superheroes.
A fur-covered "A-Team" for the kiddies, G-Force is heavy on splashy pyrotechnics and predictably light on plot.
