New York Times (A.O. Scott)
The fact that a bouncy teenage sports comedy can even gesture toward serious matters of race and economic inequality is pretty impressive, as is the occasional snarl of genuine satire. ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at New York Times (A.O. Scott)

Despite its cliched teen comedy premise, Bring It On... tends to have more style than actual laughs but still manages to be enjoyable. ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at Daily-Reviews (Brian Matherly)

Miradas desde el Sur (Leonel Delgado Aburto)
Las cheerleaders me recuerdan el fascismo. Son dadas al tumulto, al orden y la obsesiva higiene corporal. Saben que fascinan, además, con las piernas entregadas a otras piruetas ajenas a las que uno podrÃa (y se pudre quien lo imagina) imaginar. No es ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at Miradas desde el Sur (Leonel Delgado Aburto)

Apollo Movie Guide (Brian Webster)
It’s a teen comedy about cheerleading – but wait! It’s actually original and well-done. A decent script and direction and strong performances by Kirsten Dunst, Eliza Dushku and Jesse Bradford make this a refreshingly different teen movie that ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at Apollo Movie Guide (Brian Webster)
The UK Critic (Ian Waldron-Mantgani)
For all its flaws, I still have a kind of grudging affection for "Bring It On", perhaps because Eliza Dushku, as Missy, is so sexually appealing, and her performance requires her to interact with a lot of different sets of characters in different tones, ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at The UK Critic (Ian Waldron-Mantgani)
Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)
Bring It On is the sort of mindless fluff I would expect on the Disney channel to pass for "quality entertainment", but I doubt they would let the multitudinous cheesecake shots and phallic symbolism which permeate nearly every scene play on reg ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)

There's a point about 35 minutes into Bring It On where you suddenly realize you're sitting in a movie theater, watching Bring It On, wondering exactly how the hell the events in your life conspired to put your ass in an uncomfortable movie theater seat.. ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at filmcritic.com (Christopher Null)

Three Movie Buffs (Patrick Nash)
So, though this movie does successfully capture at least a slice of American youth circa 2000, it is only slightly above average for the genre. ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at Three Movie Buffs (Patrick Nash)

Cheerleaders, says this teen comedy which is effectively the pompom world's answer to Coyote Ugly, are people too.So long the objects of desire or of brainless punchlines in high-school flicks, here the cheerleaders put everyone and everything else on ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at The New Zealand Herald

After all, this is a story about cheerleaders usually a target of cinematic ridicule and their struggles to make it to the national championships in Orlando, Fla.Admittedly, the plot isn't "War and Peace." This is just a silly, formulaic movie with ...read the complete Bring It On movie review at Bob Bloom
