Leslie Felperin Guardian Most of the nice, more-central-to-the-plot characters are very bland, while Turuleca herself is an emphatically hideous creation. Rated: 2/5 Jan 20, 2021 Full Review Guillermo Courau La Nación (Argentina) ... It seems the objective here is to rush through a series of colorful images interspersed with a handful of eclectic songs placed with surgical precision and without justification. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 2/5 Jul 14, 2022 Full Review Pablo O. Scholz Clarín ... Since the film is geared towards young children -no multiverses here- if they're at the farm, they're at the farm, then they go to the circus and the "big city" so you won't have to deal with time jumps that complicate things. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/4 Jul 14, 2022 Full Review Rolando Gallego EscribiendoCine Dives into traditional formulas and storytelling schemes to enhance the hero's, in this case, heroine's journey... [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 6/10 Jul 13, 2022 Full Review Tom Cassidy Common Sense Media This animated adventure features a singing chicken that's not only enough to save the movie's struggling circus but also has plenty of appeal for kids. Rated: 3/5 Jul 6, 2022 Full Review Jordi Batlle Caminal Fotogramas The character design is competent and the action moves with energy and fluidity.

Ram Y It's good but not WOW Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/11/25 Full Review gaspar p La gallina turuleca a puesto 1 a puesto 2 a puesto 3 la gallina turuleca a puesto 4 a puesto 5 a puesto 6 LA GALLINA TURULECA A PUESTO 8 A PUESTO 9 A PUESTO 10!!!!!! 1000/10 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/15/23 Full Review Chris M Pretty standard plot with standard greedy villain trope. Plus the memory loss is cliché at this point. But standard doesn't mean bad. Just because you know where it's going doesn't mean it's bad. Every movie doesn't need a twist. Lastly the pacing can be an issue. But the animation is good, not great. The characters are fun to watch. Overall, it's a cute story and I think little-little kids will love it. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/06/22 Full Review Audience Member It's a good movie if you want to turn of your brain for a hour. Animation isn't the best, but I wouldn't be to harsh on it as it's a small animation studio. If you have kids it's a great movie for them to watch. Music isn't its strongest side, since the writer, singer and composer in the movie is a retired musician I wouldn't complain that much I give this movie 7/10 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
