I watched it in French (for reasons too confusing to elaborate here) but it didn't affect the fact that it's Disney at worst; those awful big eyed characters, once only horrid plastic dolls but, since the Ice Age films, standard animation (hate that look); dreadful music sounding LIKE the hits but nowhere near as good as When You Wish Upon A Star or even Chitty Bang Bang; silly plot borrowed from Hans Christian Andersen (who I've gone right off having reread some of his stories lately); but it just won a Golden Globe for Best Animated Picture.

Not for me at all.

Disney lost it's way by the early 90's, Adventures In Babyitting is a classic aimed for the family but for youths at the time. Flight Of The Navigator is still a gem but the upcoming remake is not needed.
