Critical response

Lav Diaz, writing for the Manila Standard, gave Super Inday and the Golden Bibe a positive review. He expressed that the film has almost everything kids like, and especially gave praise to the villains' costumes for being cartoon-like and not looking fake. However, he criticized the film's lack of a clearly demonstrated difference between right and wrong for when the kids steal a chicken from their neighbor to save the duck Snow White from getting killed by Brutus, stating that "it is true that the cliched fight between a disciple of good and the evil spirits was demonstrated but it is not just the evil spirits that are bad. It is also bad to steal – even if it was presented as simply for fun."[3]
