We loved the music from the movie and also loved the feel good story and happy ending. I decided to buy it for my daughter because she was singing the music from the movie in her school choir. We had watched it years ago when she was younger but had never purchased the film to keep in our collection. The story is timeless - the historical aspect is awesome, allowing children to learn about immigrants who came to this country because of persecution in their own homelands. It also allows children to learn the value of friendship - taking in someone who needs help. It also helps reinforce the value of family and how important each individual family member is to the unit as a whole. The movie not only has great lessons in it for children - but it also is amusing and the music is great. I highly recommend it.Read full review
This is a fantastic movie for kids... and adults alike. It is humorous, poiniant, adorable, moves right along... it is a wonderful movie for any children of immigrant parents who have braved coming to America for the good of their family... and how it takes ingenuity, courage, and heart to make the transition. My family immigrated in 1910 on a ship from Russia... they experienced the same hardships and adventures of this family in the story. Fievel Mouskowitz is the main character ... a delight. In this day of movies you cringe at when you watch them with your kids... or cover their ears or eyes.... no worries with this one... it is truely a G movie.,.. and not boring for any age., I didn't dislike on thing in it,.. I bought 4 copies... one for my son's kids... for my daughter's kids (all my grandkids) .... for a new immigrant family with children,,,, and of course.... one for me.Read full review
Fievel is a young Russian mouse separated from his parents on the way to America, a land they think is without cats. When he arrives alone in the New World, he keeps up hope, searching for his family, making new friends, and running and dodging the cats he thought he'd be rid off. An American Tail easily one of the best animated features ever made, but it proves to be leaps beyond the efforts of recent Disney movies by refusing to be constricted to an all too familiar formula. A heartwarming story, beautiful songs, great performances and the animation is stellar. This is an excellent movie for all ages that will warm your heart
I love this movie as much today as I did when it first came out. The story is engaging, the characters are memorable, and the music is timeless. I am anxious to show this to my grandchildren. You honestly can't go wrong with this little jem.
