Product Description
A Walt Disney Masterpiece Movie. The Aristocats is a movie enjoyed both by the young and old. In plastic protective case.

Amazon.com
Duchess and her three kittens are enjoying the high life with their devoted human mistress until the wicked butler Edgar, with his eyes on a big inheritance, decides to dope them and get them out of the picture. How can these fragile creatures cope in the unfamiliar countryside and the meaner streets of Paris? Only by meeting the irrepressible alley cat O'Malley, a rough diamond with romance in his heart. After they get a taste of the wide dangerous world, he guides them home, and Edgar gets his just desserts at the wrong end of a horse. As always, it's really the voices rather than the animation that are the heart of the Disney magic: Phil Harris is brilliant as O'Malley, Eva Gabor as Duchess is... well... Eva Gabor; but perhaps the most memorable turns are by Pat Buttram and George Lindsay, who turn the old hounds Napoleon and Lafayette into a couple of bumbling Southern-fried rednecks. Their scenes with Edgar, and the musical numbers with Scat Cat and his cool-dude band, are classic. Most striking about seeing The Aristocats now is how deeply Disney's style of animation has changed since this was at the cutting edge in 1970. Perhaps the nostalgic, dated feel are just a result of being plonked down in Belle Epoque Paris, but the illustrations are fussier (a pity) and the animation and overall pace much less frenetic (sometimes a relief) than in more recent efforts such as Aladdin. --Richard Farr

5 out of 5 stars Cute Little Cat Movie   June 16, 2010

I don't review movies very often. Very, very rarely do I even watch a movie. But I remember watching this movie when all my kids were little (we had rented it from a movie rental place). I remembered that it was good, so I therefore recently bought it from Amazon, and just now got around to watching it. I wanted to watch it with my little granddaughter (even though she's not old enough to care about it yet) and with my kids again, even though they are older.

It is a cute little family cartoon movie. It is the perfect movie to watch with your family. It is only (I think) about an hour and fifteen minutes. That is good for me, because I have a HARD time sitting through a movie. Even this movie, as good as it was, and as short as it was, was hard for me to sit through. I don't usually pick up on plots. (I'd much rather be reading a book.)

Anyway, this is a cute little cat movie. I enjoyed it (even though it was hard for me to sit through.) My little granddaughter was there. When she gets older, if she likes movies, she can watch it again. This movie was my movie quota for the next 5 or 10 years. I probably won't watch another movie for at least another 10 years - or maybe never. I am now going to my books. If I don't get back to reading, I will go crazy . . .



5 out of 5 stars The Aristocats   May 19, 2010

The DVD was purchased as a birthday gift for my six year old granddaughter. She has two younger sisters and the three girls want a pet kitten so much. I had seen The Aristocats years ago with other grandkids and thought it was precious. That was the reason for the purchase of this original classic. We are all having a grand time watching it over and over. Hopefully for now the girls will be happy with their movie and get their alive kitty in a few more years.

J. Elson (Clementon, NJ)
This order was to receive a replacement for faulty copy received as a gift. We were promptly credited for the payment and return postage for the "bad" disc. Amazon came through again as a well run organization.
