This snappy role reversal may or may not appeal to young men, but it inspires some classic knockabout screwball comedy and an exciting, vertiginous escape sequence.

This is your basic, and very enjoyable, Disney princess musical, an empowerment tale to teach bright, dreamy girls how to grow to maturity -- and outgrow the adults in charge.
Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine

These are timeless themes -- domineering parent, sheltered child, dangerous boyfriend -- all woven together nicely by a crew of filmmakers from the Disney-Pixar trenches.

I can't help liking a movie with chameleon reaction shots.
David Edelstein, New York Magazine/Vulture

It's the best Disney animation in years, and a natural counterpoint to the contemporary comic style that has come to dominate the industry.
