Pros: Great screenplay, nice voice work, hilarious film Cons: Doesn’t really fit the classic Disney mold…

Pros: Very funny movie! Voices/characters perfect matched up! Cons: Simple story line.
Summary: Okay, my standards were low when this movie first came out, I didn't think I would like it. I'm pretty picky about my "kid" movies. With epics like Monster's Inc and Toy Story, etc. it's hard to compete. But every now and again I find one that's ... read more

Pros: Entertaining for adults & children alike! Cons: Still very expensive
Summary: The Emperors New Groove, was released in 2000, and seems to have flopped at the box office, in comparison to other Disney titles, taking a mere $80,000,000(!). I can only imagine that the reason that this film "flopped" was down to poor marketing, or the ... read more

Pros: Witty humor. Funny characters. Kronk is a masterpiece of a "stupid" character. Cons: Prepare for lots of sarcasm in case your not a fan of it.
Summary: When one watches a movie, he carries with him all the memories of the previous movies he has watched. Because of that, clichés are easy to spot. Many movies just borrow the same formulas and use them over and over again. The Emperors New ... read more

Pros: witty script, good direction, good use of the voices Cons: lame story idea
Summary: Disney trotted out this animated comedy back in 2000, hoping to make a killing during the winter holidays. It debuted at number one, but the weekend of December 15-17 was a virtual shut-out, so this film became "the emperor of $9.8 million." With a ... read more

Pros: Excellent voice talent, lots of humor. Cons: No big cons for this one.
Summary: Once upon a time, Disney made funny, enjoyable cartoons. I'm happy to say that "The Emperor's New Groove" is one of them. It doesn't have a heavy duty plot with a parent or family member getting killed off or a politically correct ... read more
