A classic

Rating: 9/10 (17 August 1999)

I thoroughly enjoyed this animated film.
While there are a few things I did not think were perfect they are too nit-picky to even mention.
The moral messages were a bit heavy handed but over all what was being said was valid.
I do wonder if a children's movie can be made any more without some kind of moral hitting you over the head.
The characters were quite appealing and the story line is extremely well done.
It does have you on the edge of your seat wondering just how it will all end.
Some of the messages it imparted were a bit heavy handed for adult audiences -- and I do not think that kids would understand the whole "Duck and Cover" routine. In some ways I think it tries a bit to hard to appeal on a cross-generational level.
But all being said I did enjoy this movie and what it was saying to anyone that saw and understood it.
