VHS : Pocahontas (1995) (Disney)
With Pocahontas as an ancestor, I saw this movie in grade school and then followed it up with mountains of reading and research when it first came out. Disney has been well known for their distortion of stories and tale, but that generally doesn't bother me. Beauty and the Beast is my favourite movie of all time even though it differs drastically from the original tale. Disney went too far, however, when they decided to tackle American history and then twist it for their means. A few being, the aging of Pocahontas to make her old enough for romance (she would have been 12 or 13), the supposed love affair with John Smith, and the entire political correctness of the story defile an important part of our history (ie. Jamestown the first ... Read More:

3.The Return Of Jafar (Disney) [1994] starring: Jonathan Freeman, Gilbert Gottfried, Jason Alexander, Scott Weinger, Linda Larkin

VHS : The Return Of Jafar (Disney) [1994]
In this sequel to Disney's Aladdin, the young 'street-rat' and his friends, Abu, Jasmine, Rajah and Sultan (not forgetting Genie) are back and battling against the evil Jafar. He has returned as an all-powerful genie (as we all remember from the original) and out for revenge.
The graphics and animation may not be as good as in the first film, and Dan Castellaneta is no substitute for Robin Williams, but this is a worthy sequel. Actually, Castellaneta's effort is praiseworthy.
I personally love it for the way it handles the complex character of Iago and emphasises the importance of morals and friendship - and courage. I can recommend this film for anyone who truly appreciates this kind of story.

VHS : The Tigger Movie [2000]
I can't say I was terribly impressed by this. I have never been much of a fan of Winne the Pooh, but this being such an...English....series of books, the American accents of all the characters in this Disney animation (bar Christopher Robin, who only puts in an appearance during the last two minutes of the film) soon began to grate. I'm sure this point has been complained about by many people many times before, but it is startlingly annoying. I'm sure the kids won't notice, but if you have to watch it with them - you might.

That said real reason I am writing this review is that I was absolutely astonished by the 'disaster movie' ending of this film - in which everyone is flung about during an avalanch which stikes a collapsing pine tree. I ... Read More:

5.Oliver And Company (Disney) [1989] starring: Joseph Lawrence (II), Billy Joel, Cheech Marin, Richard Mulligan, Roscoe Lee Browne

VHS : Oliver And Company (Disney) [1989]
This film was a childhood favourite of mine and now that I'm 19 and still a Disney fan, I thought I'd give it another try and still I thoroughly enjoyed it. But Oliver and Company is by no means flawless. The music and humour are both very good and the characters are as cute and loveable as you'd expect from Disney. But at times this film does attempt to slightly overstep limits with some darker moments, and it's also a rare occasion where a movie being fast paced is actually a bad thing, as the film is only 70 minutes long and goes by in no time. But still a good film for all the family and certainly one of Disney's more underrated titles. It just could've done with being a bit longer.

VHS : Aladdin And The King Of Thieves (1996) (Disney)
Before I begin, I'd just like to clarify that this is the third Aladdin film. It was always Disney's intentions to have an Aladdin trilogy - there are NOT five films!

In this third outing Aladdin and Jasmine finally get married only to be disrupted by the forty thieves who's leader just so happens to be Aladdin's father...

I thought the story of this film was very good and the humour is just fantastic (provided by the genie in Robin Williams naturally). Unlike other Disney sequels all of the original voice cast return. Some new characters are established also, rather than having to rely on old villains. These are most notably the forty thieves who are just hilarious.

After sequels like 'Return to Neverland' and 'Jungle Book 2', you'll be ... Read More:

VHS : Beauty And The Beast: The Enchanted Christmas (Disney)
Although the events of this film sit within the time-scale of the original, it is an interesting exploration of some of the untouched themes from its predecessor.

The Beast's dislike of Christmas is assumed by the audience to be simple 'Scrooge'-ism. As the story unfolds, we discover a deeper, more personal rationale for his aversion.

The addition of new characters - Forte (voiced by Tim Curry) and Fife (Paul Reubens - aka Pee-Wee Herman) - gives the story room to expand.

Ultimately, though, this one is strictly for the real fans - or at least, completists! :)

VHS : The Rescuers Down Under (Disney) [1991]
This sequel to the rescuers was something special to disney, as this is the first sequal of feature animation to also become a feature. This is currently the only sequel to date to become a feature; this shows disney had great expectations and faith in this film.

This film has a similar story style to the original film, where a kid gets captured and its up to the rescue aid society to come to the rescue. The character cast in this film is amazing, and the animators do an incredible job at portraying emotion and expression through them.

This film also, as many may not know, include disney first 3d visual effects in 2d animation. There is a flying sequence at the start which is actually 3D which at the time of release was breathtaking, and was a huge ... Read More:
