I enjoy it more than the overstuffed "Seabiscuit."

Far better as a family film than you'd think, especially with the mixed to negative reviews it has received. This is a warm, beguiling family feature that is well-intended and charming.

A likable family film that has excellent voice work, and superb execution of formulaic events. Well-mounted and acted, this is a winner with the kids.

Don't the users have worse films to vent their misguided anger on? This is not a great film, but certainly not reprehensible enough to dump manure on. I give it a 10 as a protest as well as a statement of its decency and heart! My kids adored it, and that's what really counts!

My son really enjoyed this, and I must say it mainly worked. Sometimes the animals were a bit much, but the story had a big heart.

Better than I expected. The kids loved it, and I noted that more often than not it was the adults laughing at the "in" jokes than the kids. An enjoyable afternoon.

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!

Was lucky enough to be invited to the Racing Stripes premier this past Saturday. I thought the movie was delightful. It at times brought on chills and other times brought on tears of joy. A wonderful family film. I think that Bruce greenwood was perfectly cast and did a great job. However, the big nod goes to Hayden Panettiere who is just magical. Talk about a face that lights up the screen. When she is in a shot ,you can't look away. I have seen some of her past performances and she is, in my mind the best young performer in the business.… Expand

Relatively painless kid flick about a frisky little zebra who has been raised on a farm adjacent to a race track and who wants to be a race horse. Much of what ensues is entirely predictable, but the zebra is undeniably cute, Hayden Panettiere (Raising Helen) is plucky and appealing as the teenage farm girl who wants to ride Stripes, and I enjoyed some of the celebrites who gave Babe-type voices to Stripes and his animal friends (Dustin Hoffman as a shetland pony named Tucker is nearly as loveable as Bernie Focker.) David Spade and Steve Harvey as a pair of flatulent, poop-loving flies were a bit much for my taste, but hey, judging by the reactions of my four-year-old, the filmmakers know their audience. Worst character: an out-of-place pelican voiced by Joe Pantoliano as a mob hitman (or is it hitbird?) on the lam. Judging from this film and Shark Tale, Hollywood seems to think preschoolers love nothing more than riffing on The Godfather, The Sopranos, and Scarface.… Expand
