This is how movies should be made

Rating: 10/10 (30 January 2002)

If there was ever an animated movie that completely surprised and overwhelmed me it's definitely this one. Besides awesome animation and great voice casting this movie possesses a fresh and very funny story that does not set into the usual Disney cliche but successfully keeps it's own approach till the end. And it's exactly these kinds of movies (the one's that catch you off your guard, simply surprise you in the most positive magical way, that make the best, well, movies. It deeply touched me in a way that I can only wish other movies could and I am not he least surprised it has found it's place in the IMDb's top 250 movies of all time. A movie that had to be so unjustfully overlooked at it's release in the states (or at least I presume) that it simply fell into oblivion. Well, no matter, it will ALWAYS be one (possibly THE one) of my favorite and most treasured movies of all time. An impeckably, positively magnifficent 10+/10
