Critics Consensus

Though Home on the Range is likeable and may keep young children diverted, it's one of Disney's more middling titles, with garish visuals and a dull plot.

Not a classic, but cute and fun for families.

Rated: 4/5

Chicago Reader

Assorted movie in-jokes should keep parents tolerably entertained, and Alan Menken's songs mercifully favor western swing over the expected twang pop.

One mustn't carp too much; the film unfolds at a sprightly pace, making it fair fodder for undemanding sproglets.

Outside of its animation, Home on the Range is a painful miss that shows Disney at its absolute lowest.

The feeling the movie leaves is of wanting to embrace a lot but actually covering very little. [Full Review in Spanish]

Laugh all you want, this was one of my favorite films as a little girl, but I stopped watching it for some time, and completely forgot about it’s existence. I found it on Disney plus recently and recognized the characters on the cover. I decided to rewatch it to bring back old memories; it wasn’t as good as I remembered. Sure, the jokes here and there made me chuckle a bit, the animation definitely wasn’t bad, but there was a bit too much dialogue in most scenes, I couldn’t really catch up on what was going on! Not saying the movie is terrible, it just doesn’t have a good plot. Doesn’t mean your kids won’t like it, however.

This Disney movie is a simple pleasure and I don't understand the bad reviews. It has a decent plot, good messages about friendship and collaboration, a really good bunch of songs, and several laugh out loud gags. The lyrics to the title song are hilarious. An udderly enjoyable film for kids and adults alike.

I remember as a young kid watching this film and I couldn't for the life of me remember anything about it. I've watched it again as a adult and oh boy this was very run of the mill. I just couldn't get into this one, It doesn't outstay its welcome BUT it isn't very entertaining.

The first part of the plot has a very fast development and it seems that they have a lot of things to tell but they don't even give 3 minutes to each part. The plot twists don't make much sense because they aren't developed enough to be important. The humor is forced and no joke generates anything. The only acceptable thing about the movie is Alameda Slim.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

This ain’t good compared to Spirit Stallion of the Cimmarron. The animation, the jokes, and the themes are not for adults. That was the magic. Disney usually hit both kids and adults but here it’s just for children.
