Alicia Love this childhood favorite! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/08/22 Full Review Tyler G The animation is nice and songs charming, but I just couldn't get into it. Kind of boring and hammers the same two notes (never give up; America is great) the entire movie. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/13/25 Full Review Blu B All Time Classic. Like many family animated movies of this time it's suprsingly dark and scary at times for a "kids" movie. The main character is super likeable, charming, and very easy to get behind. While no one else has that much depth to their character, they are all super memorable thanks to how well their drawn and the voice acting is filled with character. Dom DeLuise as Tiger especially is a standout, easily one of his best films. This is a case study on exection making up for lack of substance on the support side. The animation is gorgous and capture that turn of the century look of NYC perfectly you see in something like The Godfather Part II or Gangs of New York perfectly. Filled with detail, sludge and smog like but never lifeless, and beautiful at the same time. The cat scenes especially are terrifying and like a horror movie. The music is super catchy, memorable, and well sung. And in just 80 minutes this is a brisk adventure that never drags. We stay super focused on Fievel the entire way. Granted the tone can move between fear and kid like Singin In The Rain moments on a dime but underneatht the whole adventure a underlying commentary of the American Dream is underneath. The dream is not all "No Cats and streets made of cheese" but unpredictable and can turn on a dime. Just like the movie does. Everyone should give this a try once.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/19/25 Full Review Jeana Marie P I actually never seen the first film when I was growing up because I wasn’t born when it was released back in 1986. Anyway, great songs, some saddening scenes, but I’m sure whoever’s baby won’t really cry when the character(s) from the movie’s crying. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/01/25 Full Review Rusty R I've watched this movie twice and I just could never get around it. It was just too boring for me. Not good, but not bad!
