The best Disney movie I've seen in ages

Rating: 10/10 (21 June 1999)

When I first saw the ad for this movie, I was totally breathless at the fantastic animation shown -- could they keep it up for the entirety of the movie, I asked myself. Also in the forefront of my mind was the nasty habit Disney had shown to me over the past eight years of providing beautiful animation but tremendously bad story, so I was expecting more of the same. And then I saw this movie. Yes, they certainly proved they could keep up the adrenaline-pumping animation for the full length of the feature. And more amazingly, this story was great! It was extremely enjoyable, with very little of the kid-i-fied scenes that made "Hercules" a sickening experience for me. It actually seemed more adult-oriented than many other American animated features I had seen, and yet did a good job of not being gory or horrifically violent. The fact that this movie was not a musical like every other Disney movie was a welcome break, too. Overall, a great show for all ages (I mean it)! Go see it!
