Encanto is a vibrant, visual delight that’s just as magical as the family at its center. - 80
Empire
Vibrant visuals, a stack of stellar songs, and a story with real heart make for another Disney banger. Sixty films in, the Mouse House still has that magic. - 80
TheWrap
Enchant it does, in ebbs and flows, mostly when relatable human ache peaks through the razzle-dazzle. - 75
The A.V. Club
For all its compelling individual elements, Encanto doesn’t quite manage to weave them together into something greater than the sum of its parts—which is especially frustrating given that the idea of communal support is a driving ethos of the film. - 70
Screen Rant
Though it can't quite break out of the Disney mold, Encanto is greatly aided by a unique story, a delightful cast of characters, and a vital message. - 70
Slashfilm
For films like Encanto to truly stand out, instead of being content with being good enough, they need to push storytelling limits as much as they push cultural ones. - 67
IndieWire
Encanto feels like one of the Mouse House’s more emotionally complex animated features, even if its story ultimately tries too hard to wrap up that nuance in a very tidy bow. - 60
Arizona Republic
There is so much to enjoy about Encanto — the songs, the gorgeous animation, the cultural traditions. All of which make the script’s serious shortcomings all the more surprising and disappointing.
