At least something to enjoy

Rating: 9/10 (13 August 2001)

"The emperor's new groove" is a fast paced screwball comedy a little in the style of "Aladdin", though not as good. The animation is superb and the backgrounds are colorful. This time, the movie isn't spoiled by the recently ubiquitous computer animation.
For me, "The emperor's new groove" was just unpretentious fun with marvelous visuals and as such it is by far better digestible than classic tales turned into happy-ended child amusement (I am thinking of the awful "Tarzan" here).
