(1 - 19) of 19 OFCS Rating: 26% Rotten Page   1   B "That it is familiar and predictable is a given, but nevertheless Racing Stripes is an enjoyable film."   FromTheBalcony   Bill Clark D- "Imagine Babe without the heart, acting, writing, direction, craftsmanship, appeal, respect, scoring, wonder, and general storybook feel. That’s Racing Stripes."   FilmJerk.com   Brian Orndorf C- "Proceeding from a ridiculous premise, this fish-out-of-water tale manages to create a passably humorous film for kids."   EDGE Boston   David Foucher 1.5/4 "Having seen it all before, and in a superior, more charming fashion, the most likely response from viewers will be lackadaisical indifference."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman C "If you want a positive reaction to your film, don't put farting animals in it."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider B- "It has enough heart and humor to land it in the winner's circle, even if not in first place."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 2/5 "A family film that tries to duplicate the moral uplift of "Babe" and fails miserably with its emphasis upon competition and winning."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 2.5/4 "Babe is a family film. Racing Stripes is a children's film."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 5/10 "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."   DVDTown.com   John J. Puccio C "Old McDonald had a farm, EEIEEIO. And on that farm there was no clear sense of direction, EEIEEIO."   FilmStew.com   Larry Carroll D "Racing Stripes follows a story arc similar to Babe, but it possesses none of the warmth, humor, or originality of that film."   Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema   Mark Pfeiffer 1.5/4 "Truly all-ages appeal is nowhere in evidence as director Frederik DuChau is all too eager to sink to cheap juvenalia."   Mr. Brown's Movies   Michael Dequina B+ "The humor may overdo the doo-doo, but there are sweet and funny moments as Stripes tries to follow his dream and learns the importance of friends."   Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies   Nell Minow 2.5/5 "The only thing that keeps us engaged is the cute factor."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline C "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."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten B- "succeeds in thoroughly entertaining its target audience while being easy on the eyes and minds of the escorting adults"   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 3/5 "by-the-numbers family entertainment"   Filmcritic.com   Sean O'Connell 3/4 "Fairly engaging."   Reel.com   Timothy Knight 0/4 "Low, venal entertainment."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw  (1 - 19) of 19 OFCS Rating: 26% Rotten Page   1
