United Kingdom	Kim Newman Empire	"Let’s face it, a spaghetti Western with reptiles was never going to be as comfortable a watch as, say, a kung-fu movie with a panda. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)"	NEU
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"A kiddie cartoon about good, bad and ugly desert critters (...) Rango is like nothing you've ever seen (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)"	POS
