Movie Reviews of The Rescuers Down Under (Disney Gold Classic Collection)
Movie Review: The original reel for this "movie" should've been shot to the moon!
Summary: 1 Stars
I wasn't really a fan of the original, but it was alright. But 13 years later, Disney had to screw up the original's legacy. I. Hate. The Rescuers Down Under. It's more of a ripoff than a sequel, as the plot's basically the same. And now we've got similarly crappy sequels to Disney favorites, like 101 Dalmatians 2 comes to mind, as does Bambi II. Those 2 sucked as well. It deserves a flat-out Zero! At least it's not the worst movie George C. Scott has been in. Remember the Gloria remake? Yeah. I'm pretty sure he got this off his resume before his death.
I would not even recommend this film to my worst enemy. I only gave this one star because I can't figure out the zero star option
I might as well even go as far as calling it the worst movie ever made!
Summary of The Rescuers Down Under (Disney Gold Classic Collection)
No, this isn't a quickie, direct-to-video sequel, cashing in on the success of the 1977 animated hit about adventurous mice, but a full-blown theatrical effort. This time around, Bernard (voiced by Bob Newhart) is trying to pop the question to Bianca (Eva Gabor) when they're summoned to Australia, where a young boy has been kidnapped by a pallid, gray-faced poacher (who looks like and is voiced by George C. Scott). Wilbur, a chatterbox of an albatross (John Candy, replacing the late Jim Jordan's character Orville), and Jake (Tristan Rogers), a kangaroo mouse--Bernard is jealous of the dashing rodent--assist the Rescuers in saving the day and imparting a mild environmental message. The film opens with an absolutely breathtaking aerial sequence--this was made near the beginning of Disney's animation renaissance--so impressive it would seem the story, literally, has nowhere else to go but down, but some smart gags, excellent animation, and rollicking adventures ensue. So why isn't it better known? It had the bad luck to open, in 1990, opposite another kids' film--Home Alone. --David KronkeHold on tight for a thrilling, fast-paced adventure unlike any other with THE RESCUERS DOWN UNDER! The world's bravest mice, Bernard and Miss Bianca, answer a call for help from deep in the heart of Australia's vast and unpredictable Outback! With a crazy crew of local critters, these top mouse agents rush to the aid of Cody, a young boy struggling to save a magnificent eagle from a ruthless poacher. But with restless natives and unexpected dangers popping up at every turn, who knows if they'll come to the rescue in time! Say "G'Day" to a classic Disney adventure full of unforgettable characters and incredible animation in this down-under delight you'll cherish for years to come!
