Rating: ★★★★
Nov 24, 2002Disney Animation/Mouse Sherlock Holmes
One of the most delightful films produced during the 1960s-80s lean years of Disney animation. This was not a success but delivers a film of winning charms about a mouse equivalent of Sherlock Holmes

Dec 24, 2002Disney Animation/Treasure Island in Outer Space
Disney animated film that proved a flop, this lazily remakes Treasure Island set in space. The result is bad science-fiction with sailing ships in space, Ben Gumm as a malfunctioning robot and so on

Dec 20, 2009Disney Animation/Animal Transformation
One of the more enjoyable Disney animated films from the latter half of the 00s. Featuring Disney's first Black heroine, this embraces its New Orleans setting and turns Hans Christian Andersen's fairytale on its head with enjoyable results

Moana (2016)
Rating: ★★
Feb 11, 2017Disney Animation/Pacific Island Mythology
Despite being a huge box-office and critical success and being nominated for an Academy Award, I am in a minority in disliking this. Maybe it's something to do with the fact that it appropriates the culture from my neck of the woods and only spins it out as a series of glib jokes and one-liners
