One of the best feel good comedies of the year

Rating: 8/10 (9 December 2000)

Disney's The Emperor's New Groove is one of those family films that anyone can walk in, see it, and feel good afterwards. Mainly because it's funny, and mostly entertaining. Story follows a spoiled emperor (David Spade vocals and gives some great charm to the character) who gets his life twisted around when a revenging advisor (Eartha Kitt voices) turns him into a lama (though by accident). Then the fun begins. Like The Road to El Dorado (another animated feel good comedy from this years batch), this is a family animated/comedy that isn't in perfection, but it doesn't matter much when it's this enjoyable. Good natured songs by Sting give this film a boost. A-
