Some family films are perfectly decent entertainments for their intended audience, no more no less. It is into this category that we can slot Buffalo Kids. It’s amiable and rattles along nicely enough without ever really surprising anyone.

Buffalo Kids is a formulaic but delightful animated film about lost orphans chased by bandits in California in 1886. This Wild West story stands out for having forward-thinking and empathetic portrayals of a wheelchair-using child and Native Americans.

Buffalo Kids is far more than just entertainment—it addresses disability representation in a landmark way for children's animation.

There is no shortage of nods to 'Titanic' or 'Taxi Driver'... for adults. [Full review in Spanish]

Entertaining, with some nice gags of recurring humor and an excellent rhythm. [Full review in Spanish]

I loved the characters and how they embraced Nick. Even though he was paralyzed, they made sure he felt included in every aspect of the journey which was so sweet. It also was a great lesson for children to learn to treat people kind and not dehumanize them no matter their condition.

A beautiful story with much-needed positive Native American representation! My only gripe is the safety messaging—the disclaimer that 'wildlife is dangerous' only appears during the credits. It’s a bit of a missed opportunity for a teaching moment during the actual movie, especially for younger viewers.

Buffalo Kids es una de esas películas que solo vienen de higos a brevas; hay una magia especial e innegable en esta película que me llevó en un viaje emocional y adorable, aunque no es un filme perfecto. Buffalo Kids es una modesta obra maestra que merece muchísimo más amor y audiencia... Ojalá que esta peli llegue a ser un clásico de culto en los años venideros. Si tengo que elegir una película para championar como el fracaso de taquilla más inmerecido de la historia, esta es esa peli.
