Movie Reviews of Watership Down (Deluxe Edition)
Movie Review: Been waiting for years for the new release!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am so happy to finally get this wonderful story on DVD!!! I read the novel many years ago, and saw the film for the first time in 2001. I must admit to being in my 30's, and this is still one of my all time favorites!!!
Summary of Watership Down (Deluxe Edition)
Much like Richard Adams's wonderful novel, this animated tale of wandering rabbits is not meant for small children. It is, however, rich storytelling, populated with very real individuals inhabiting a very real world. The animation is problematic, sometimes appearing out of proportion or just subpar; but it seems to stem from an attempt at realism, something distinguishing the film's characters from previous, cutesy, animated animals. A band of rabbits illegally leave their warren after a prophecy of doom from a runt named Fiver (Richard Briers). In search of a place safe from humans and predators, they face all kinds of dangers, including a warren that has made a sick bargain with humankind, and a warren that is basically a fascist state. Allegories aside, Down is engaging and satisfying, and pulls off the same amazing trick that the novel did--you'll forget that this is a story about rabbits. --Keith SimantonAction & Adventure DVD Video
