Spirit is smarter than your average cartoon because it doesn't try to joke around with a host of annoying talking animals.
Michael Booth, Denver Post

There's not much of a story, the whole thing's a bit superficial, and there's little to laugh at, but it's still a refreshing change from the norm.
Derek Adams, Time Out

An exciting and exquisitely rendered film in which the horse goes through as many adventures and perils as Indiana Jones on a good day.
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Fresh
A welcome family film that extols noble values and offers first-class animation.
