Racing Stripes

Pros: good story, lots of heart, shows how an outcast can still be important
Cons: too many voice-overs, weak antagonists.

Racing Stripes is the latest attempt to use animals in live-action roles with voice overs being done by many famous celebrities. It's interesting that films like this one feel the need to have all of the voice-overs done by celebrities, because ...

Pros: cute talking animals
Cons: crude unrelated humor, predictable

There are times when I rent movies just because they are new releases and assume they will be good. I didn't know anything about this Warner Brother movie before I rented it. If I had known, I would not have wasted our time with this flick. This ...

Pros: well done, Disney-quality, cute, funny, enjoyable, family values
Cons: none

I took my 3-year-old daughter to this today, and I had no qualms about my daughter being there. It was well done, Disney-quality. It's a totally predictable story about an ex-racehorse trainer and his teenage daughter who live in Kentucky, next to a ...

Pros: Hilarious animal characters, one-liners, a great "feel good" movie
Cons: A bit predictable ending (who cares? I loved it)

When I was a wee lad, I used to have a favorite cartoon. For all of you who remember it, it'll date me. Although animated, I marveled at "Kimba, The White Lion." I guess I'm just a sucker for talking animals. Wouldn't it be cool if your dog or cat ...

Pros: Love, caring, determination, hope, achievement and fulfillment of dreams.
Cons: So, it's predictable, but what's not to like anyhow?

OK, so the critics didn't exactly love this movie. That's why they're called "critics." Still, as far as I'm concerned, what is there in this movie that's not to like? There is a cast of characters that will bring smiles of joy to virtually every kid ...

Pros: Great movie for the entire family featuring top name actors.
Cons: Nothing. It's perfect.

Racing Stripes is a heart-warming story about how anything is possible if you believe. It follows the heels of many like-minded themes while incorporating the animal kingdom in the mix. It gets high marks for clean, wholesome funny entertainment. If you ...

Pros: Entertaining Story, funny, good morals
Cons: predictable, animation

When you have kids, you sometimes have to see the movies that you would never see otherwise. Last night I brought my daughter to see Racing Stripes, and I wasn’t expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. At first the animation isn’t exact with the ...

Pros: Good ethics, good cast
Cons: Not very witty, nothing for adults

It's the classic fish out of water story in this bland family comedy. On a dark and stormy night, a traveling circus breaks down somewhere in Kentucky and has to repack its cargo. In the chaos, no one notices that a small box containing a baby zebra ...

Pros: Mild humor, very well played roles
Cons: Typical story

Okay, okay, I saw a child's movie. But what was I supposed to do? Let another movie go by and not know at least if it's a decent movie or not? Now, I'm not a typical fan of the young children's movies because all of them are predictable. All of them ...

Pros: Family orientated, eye-popping effects.
Cons: Predictable

This was a wonderfully animated movie for all ages. The movie is about a Zebra who has to overcome his fears to be able to become the ultimate racing machine. The movie is predictable in ways, but is well worth the purchase of a video rental. The movie is intertwined with eye-popping visual effects, such as the animated horse flies, and very clean family oriented humor. The movie actually reminded me at times of Doctor Doolittle. The movie will leave you cheering for the ultimate racing machine in the end. Check it out today!

Pros: The story sends a positive message and does not contain bad language.
Cons: Movie is very predictable. Children should be forewarned that this is not very realistic.

Typical Disney set up. A lost orphan or motherless character looking for it's identity, and ends happily.

I took my ten and fourteen year old daughters. My ten year enjoyed the movie and the thought of an underdog challenging for respect. My fourteen year old, on the other hand, really enjoyed the comedy and banter of the flies (David Spade and Steve Harvey). She also enjoyed the Snoop Dogg cameos. As for me, I thought it was a predictable feel good Disney movie.

Pros: The Pelican & Flys the best
Cons: Flys eating s***, but was funny

Very predictable like others have written, with that said one of the best movies out. We took our granddaughter and laughed our heads off. The flys are the best. The pelican and flys stole the show. Show moved very well and well placed jokes. Good clean funny fun.

If you don't see the movie, buy the DVD - well worth it.
