A terrific (and, yes, groovy) surprise

Rating: 6/10 (15 August 2001)

"The Emperor's New Groove" is the first Disney animated film in WAY too long whose characters have just that; animation. Really, when was the last time you watched a Disney movie and thought to yourself, "they must have had a lot of fun drawing all of this"?
This is just a great cartoon. No more and no less. And thank goodness for that! I'll stop here because I don't want to spoil anything, but make sure you don't miss it. Pick it up the next time you want something a little offbeat for the family.
I have to admit, though, I'm curious as to what "Empire of the Sun" ("Groove"'s previous life - it's a LONG story) would have been like.
