The voices of Reynolds, Lynde, Gibson, and all the rest are perfectly cast, and the songs by the Sherman brothers are solid, although none of them became hits like those they wrote for such Disney movies as Mary Poppins. Read full review

Marjorie Baumgarten

The Hanna-Barbera animation is better than the studio’s usual bare-bones mediocrity, and the voice cast is superb. Read full review

Heartwarming entertainment. Read full review

Josh Larsen

Ultimately, Charlotte’s Web is too potent a tale of life and death, as first learned by observing life on a farm, to keep even this so-so effort from ringing true. Read full review

Staff (Not Credited)

Innocuous animated fare (with songs) from Hanna-Barbera, based on EB White's fantasy. Read full review

Don Druker

It preserves some of the form and language of White's original but fattens and sweetens his lean and pungent prose with songs by Richard and Robert Sherman (Mary Poppins). Read full review
