3/10
Pointless, pathetic and full of crude humor

Warning: Spoilers
Stripes is a zebra abandoned by a circus when he's born in a box on the highway. A farmer, Nolan, rescues Stripes and raises him in all aspects like a horse. His daughter Channing loves him but other animals think he's weird, and Stripes falls in love with Sandy, a white pony. Stripes sees an elite racetrack one day and wants more than anything to be a racehorse, but the competition is extremely difficult.

Racing Stripes is an extremely silly and predictable movie, with a lot of crude humor (horse patties surrounded by talking greenbottle flies, ugh), an original but dopey and unbelievable scenario and bad acting, along with even more horrible soundtrack.

Still, Racing Stripes, at least for a kid's film, beats Hotel for Dogs (2009) and Good Boy (2003) by a long shot.
