More fun for adults than kids

Rating: 9/10 (18 December 2000)

Not that the children won't love it, but much, if not most, of the humor is going to go right over their heads. The movie has a less Disney feel to it, as if halfway through production Disney didn't like how it was going and told them to just finish what they had. No big musical numbers, no state-of-the-art animation techniques, some of the backgrounds almost look as if they were using the roughs, and many scenes are left out . . . but that was probably the best part of the film.
Between all the out-of-character takes, bordering-on-spoof humor, and fill-in-the-blanks missing scenes (one of which even plays an integral part of the plot) it works very well on two levels. You might even want to catch a late showing by yourself and leave the kids at home.
