The Color of Friendship Ratings & Reviews
Common Sense Media
Kat Halstead
Smart Disney drama tackles race and apartheid; racist slurs.
Variety
Ramin Zahed
Since the film is based on actual events, Paris Qualles' script and thesps' overall work have stronger emotional resonance than the usual "A dream is a wish your heart makes"-type pics airing on the Mouse cabler.
Seattle Times
Melanie McFarland
Cutesy interludes don't diminish the movie's impact. "The Color of Friendship" is certainly one of the better films you'll see on the channel, and certainly worth setting aside family tube time.
New York Daily News
Paul Schultz
The performances are wonderful, and when politics arise it seems natural.
Los Angeles Times
Lynne Heffley
Transcendent moments, with resonance for contemporary racial divides, are infused with heart and charm, anchored by a top-notch cast.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
Examines the efforts of an African American teenager and a white exchange student from South Africa to dismantle the walls of hate and misunderstanding that separate them.
Rachel's Reviews (YouTube)
Rachel Wagner
A brave movie that should inspire a lot of great family discussions
