jonconnormustlive-46298 The AristoCats follows a rich feline and her three kittens, after their elderly owner willed all of her belongings to the cats, her butler Edgar plots to get rid of the felines.This movie is hilarious. The characters are loveable, the dialogue is great and there some fun slapstick action scenes. The music is great! The song "Everybody Wants to be a Cat" will be stuck in your head for days!The plot isn't very realistic (Is Disney ever "Realistic"?) But it's a lot if fun. The kids will definitely enjoy it!The voice-acting is good too. You may recognize Sterling Holloway, known for voicing Winnie the Pooh and the Cheshire Cat. Here he lends his voice to the cats' mouse friend.The AristoCats definitely deserves it's place among the Walt Disney Animated Studios canon.

datautisticgamer-74853 The AristoCats is just another movie that offers a mix of charm, entertainment, and some dull, boring moments. Officially the first film of the Dark Age, there is plenty to go around for music, characters (interesting to see Duchess have a Hungarian accent, courtesy of Eva Gabor), and a workable, understandable amount of intentionally cute scenes. Despite that, there are still plenty of flaws in the story execution, in a way that my interest was swiftly dropping as a casual movie attender (I had to force myself to go through all of it as a critic). I personally found the timing of the re-engagement moments to be quite precise, with the sometimes hilarious antics of Lafayette and Napoleon hitting at the moment that I was about to get up. I might consider it a style, featuring several ups and downs to initially make the audience want to leave, but then transforming into psychological captivation. I was somewhat annoyed by this, though the movie is overall worth a viewing. It might not be suitable for those who despise cats (like Angry Grandpa), so be warned.

RealLiveClaude First saw the movie in 1972 when it was released in French Canada (the Parisian french version fits very well, with France's voice celebrities Roger Carel and Claude Bertrand among the cast...). I enjoyed it then... and still today enjoyed it so fully...Greedy butler Edgar tries to get rid of her mistress' cats to have their inheritance, however, a clever mouse, two dogs, English Goose sisters, a horse and a charming alley cat with his band of jazz cats save the day for Duchess and her kittens.Great Disney fare for all. And if you love cats, you'll fall in love with Paris and the French countryside settings. And enjoy the gags and the songs...Everybody wants to be a cat here... You'll love it !

grantss Kids will love it, but adults might find it so-so. Not anywhere near as good as Wolfgang Reitherman's previous movie, The Jungle Book. Story is quite basic, even dull at times. Music is okay but not great. Certainly not in The Jungle Book's league.This said, it has many sweet moments. It is shortish - 70 minutes long.Animation is also different to The Jungle Book, though this is not necessarily a bad thing. Here the animations seem more like water colour paintings than cartoons, which gives the movie a more artistic impression. With Paris as the setting, it works well.Voice performances are good, and well-cast. Phil Harris, who played Baloo in The Jungle Book, is back, as O'Malley The Alley Cat, and does a great job.
