    Frisky and funny enough to please pre-teens, but still witty enough to amuse even those parents who don't recognize Dustin Hoffman, Whoopi Goldberg and other notables among the unseen vocal talents.

    No "Babe" but should delight youngsters, although parents likely will find it is sentimental in the extreme, with a plot that telegraphs every development.

    At best, Racing Stripes should play nicely to youngsters with the cutoff for enjoyment extending no further than midteens.

    Almost everyone in this has done better, and those who haven't, like young Ms. Panettiere, have plenty of time to do so.

    A good movie for first - second graders. While it is not four-star Disney stuff, it doesn't try to be -- it is happy to be about a zebra who wants to be a racing horse. My wife and I both remained seated throughout the movie -- which is unusual with kid movies of late. Pop some corn and enjoy!… Expand
