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."Home media
