Critics Consensus

Charming and sweet, My Little Pony: The Movie will please its dedicated fanbase, even if it's unlikely to encourage non-devotees to gallop along for the ride.

4/5

This instalment has all the sly wit and fine character development -- once again effervescent Pinkie Pie steals the show -- that die-hard devotees treasure so much.

3/5

... its sugary surface the film offers itself as a guide for little girls on how to navigate the world that lies before them, stressing the need for female solidarity above all.

3/5

Daniel Ingram's big, Broadway musical numbers are epically-produced toe-tappers. The background designs are Ghibli-inspired excellent. And Emily Blunt couldn't invest Tempest with more tragedy and effort if she was doing an Ibsen play.

Given that the story centers on toy pony princesses with magical abilities, My Little Pony: The Movie contains multitudes to unpack.

2.5/5

A pretty shallow experience, which is functionally fine for distracting a small child for over an hour but somewhat disappointing for adults and fans hoping to get something out of the experience too.

There's nothing here meant to be taken seriously and there's simply nothing here that can be taken seriously.

Is a good movie and there is some clips that are just overwhelming to watch in my opinion of course but I enjoy seeing the movie and the music is also good as well and the characters are also good too Wednesday July 29 2026

A colorful and well-paced adventure that works perfectly as pure entertainment for children. Despite its beautiful visuals and dynamic songs, the story suffers from a predictable script and rather superficial new characters. It ends up being a mediocre commercial production that fails to replicate the charm and intelligence of the franchise's best moments.
