Really well made peice of animation. The songs are pretty awesome in this film but I guess i'm just a fag for all the Menken stuff, the stuff sang me the muse's is really well written, funny and moving at the same time. But I guess you expect this all as standard in the Disney reniassance stuff. There's loads of really funny pop-culture stuff in this and when anything features Karate Kid jokes i'm totally on board! The action sections are well done and move at a pace to keep you on the edge of your seat and the timings and pace by both Danny DeVito and James Wood's in their delivery of lines makes their characters hillarious in two different ways. Cool underdog story and like most Disney flicks a must watch, anyone can enjoy this film.

I saw this movie in theatres, and have seen it a couple of times on video....just watched it on DVD for the first time, and I must say, I have enjoyed this movie every time I have watched it.

It's not the best animated Disney movie, but it certainly isn't the worst. It's got some great songs to go with the mythological story.

I guess I enjoy the music because I am a big fan of "Little Shop of Horrors" and the music in that (both movies having their music done by Alan Menken).

It's just a fun movie, good for the entertainment value and---as usual in so many Disney movies---the one-liners and cultural references that appeal to adults.
