Tries too hard to be 'hip'

Rating: 4/10 (6 May 2001)

Disney's Emperor's New Groove, is an atempt to throw slapstic and Tex Avery, Ren Stimpy-ish humour in a Disney formula. In the end it just comes off as being totaly lame.
The animation is fine, it's a typical Disney story, but it's atempts to generate laughs will only work on someone under the age of maybe 6. The film is not entertaining and comes across as Disney trying to be 'hip' and 'with it' like the crazy ingenious animation of other studios. Nice try.. get original.
Didn't work guys... ecspecially when you pick an annoying David Spade that doesn't help either.
Rating 4 out of 10.
