... A fantastic introduction [to the My Little Pony saga] yet sufficiently conclusive to stand alone [within the franchise].

I don't know if I respect what this movie is doing, but I appreciate the absurdity with which they do it.

"My Little Pony: A New Generation" follows in the tradition of MLP: candy colors, poppy music, gentle humor, warm-hearted lessons about friendship, and selling merchandise.

My Little Pony: A New Generation is a nice way to commence the next chapter of the franchise after Friendship is Magic.
