here have been worse family films that have been in release in recent memory, but Racing Stripes still isnt good enough to recommend even at a discount price.

| Original Score: D+ | Nov 18, 2019

Best live-action talking animal movie since Babe.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 28, 2010

There's something oddly satisfying about seeing a notoriously disobedient wild animal like a zebra racing alongside horses.

| Original Score: B | Apr 16, 2009

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 7, 2008

Part earnest, old-fashioned melodrama, part wisecracking broad comedy, Racing Stripes is a film divided against itself.

Racing Stripes never pulls ahead of the pack, but it's good for a few laps around the track.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 1, 2006

Um filme engraadinho, sem dvida, mas que nada mais do que uma cpia pouco inspirada do encantador Babe - Um Porquinho Atrapalhado.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 5, 2005

That it is familiar and predictable is a given, but nevertheless Racing Stripes is an enjoyable film.

| Original Score: B | Jun 16, 2005

I have no doubt that Racing Stripes will be a solid hit with younger kids. But adults watching it with them may want to bring along a good book.

| Original Score: 5/10 | May 7, 2005

I suppose you have to expect barnyard humor in a film which takes place in a barnyard, but I longed for something more clever and less crude.

| Original Score: C | Apr 27, 2005

Racing Stripes follows a story arc similar to Babe, but it possesses none of the warmth, humor, or originality of that film.

| Original Score: D | Apr 13, 2005

A breezy caper that will entertain children without testing their parents' patience.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 8, 2005

This is a nice movie that should entertain the kids and adults won't mind either.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 7, 2005

If in the world of talking animal movies Babe is a 10, Racing Stripes scores a 6.5.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 7, 2005

... the screenplay is a little unfocused in places - for example, a love interest sub-plot gets dropped pretty quickly, presumably because onscreen horse-zebra love might provoke some awkward questions.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 5, 2005

The only thing that keeps us engaged is the cute factor.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 30, 2005

Truly all-ages appeal is nowhere in evidence as director Frederik DuChau is all too eager to sink to cheap juvenalia.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 29, 2005

A horse of a different color!

Full Review | Original Score: D | Jan 26, 2005

A predictable but pleasant kids movie.
