Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
As Brent Hodge vividly illustrates in his entertaining, insightful and affectionate documentary about a seemingly bizarre subculture, there's more to this phenomenon than meets the eye. Heck, it might even make a Brony out of you.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
This is an accessible, briskly paced documentary about a phenomenon that warrants exactly the level of investigation Hodges has given it here.

A Brony Tale educated me, but I can't help but feel the history I learned was a little selective.

The Mary Sue
Some of its subjects definitely register high on a creepy meter, but the film does provide an interesting look at our expectations of manliness, gender norms and comments on sexuality.

Rating: 9.1/10 --
While it could have benefited from more insight from the people involved with show and follow-up commentary from Bryan, the movie poses interesting questions about gender roles in modern society.

Situates the phenomenon inside an identifiable world rather than setting it aside like it's some kind of otherness.
