Nice effects though.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Jake, Bianca, and Bernard are riding on the fireflies to find Cody anywhere in Australia. But, Bernard is making funny of the firefly on backwards, sneezed with the powdered flower, and splashed on water. In fact, Bianca loves to ride on the firefly. It was fun. But, the fireflies came from around the world. I know they are fun riding of the horses in the west by America. I hope it will enjoy it for that. I always love it. Bernard and Bianca are good team for the Rescue Aid Society. Anyway, it's just that they want it to rescue. This is swell. And then, you need it. Enjoy the cowboy, the merry-go-round, and the carnival rides. In the place you'll see the fireflies sequence from "The Rescuers Down Under" and you'll get it. Thanks for everything.
Entertaining sequel to "The Rescuers" sees Bob Newhart and Eva Gabor back to voice the characters of Bernard and Bianca mouse of the rescue service, which operates out of the UN to help children in need, and in this tale a young boy living in Australia has been abducted by an evil poacher called Mr. McLeach(voiced by George C. Scott) who wants the boy to lead him to a large and rare eagle that he wants to kill, but the boy refuses. It is up to Bernard and Bianca to save the day again... Though not as charming and moving as the first, this still is a respectable effort, with a worthwhile message and an ambitious visual approach. Shame there wasn't a third adventure...
This is a sequel to the adventurous "The Rescuers" from Disney, a story about two mice named Bernard and Miss Bianca from the Rescue Aid Society out to rescue a boy named Cody and his golden eagle friend Marahute from kidnapping poacher, Percival McLeach, in Australia. He is after the endangered species bird for its profitable quarry. As a result, the rescuing Bernard and Bianca team up with the society's local field operative, Jake The Kangaroo Rat, to find Cody, stop McLeach and save Marahute. This movie, Disney's 29th full-length animated feature film and the only such film to be a sequel, is like a daring and fun action-adventure movie, but with animals serving as the protagonists. It's non-stop adventure from Cody freeing Marahute to Bernard and Miss Bianca going through rushing waters to rescue Cody. All the characters, especially the critters, are lovable and memorable. The subplot of Cody and his newly-formed friendship with the eagle he rescued is interwoven into the main plot very well, expanding on the "Rescuers" topic of the movie.This movie, like its prequel, is probably one of the more obscure of Disney films as it does not utilize the fairytale method. I personally like "The Rescuers" more because I thought it was more charming and heartfelt and contained more unforgettable songs. But, this movie is nonetheless one of the more exciting Disney features that would sure delight an audience of all ages.Grade B
This has been a family favorite ever since it came out and it's sad that not many people appreciate it for what it is.This is less of a sequel and more of a separate story with only three characters (the chubby mouse in charge of the Rescue Aid Society, Wilbur, and Miss Bianca) returning, this time to rescue Cody, a young boy who is attempting to rescue animals from poachers and is kidnapped in the process. His most recent animal rescue is Marahute, the golden eagle.While disjointed in places, this film proves to be a fun little thrill ride. The main characters are fairly well-developed though typically one-dimensional. The only one who shows a character arc is Bernard, who finally has a chance to move past his superstitious, worrisome nature and find some courage.MacLeech, the poacher villain, is sufficiently creepy and his huge lizard sidekick Joanna is awesomely funny. Our family has even developed the habit for calling 'Joannaaaaaa!' whenever we see a really big lizard, so enthralled we are with the reptile. Another funny character is Frank the frilled lizard, who never fails to bring giggles.The good parts about this film are the typically wonderful animation (first animated Disney movie with computer animation!) and the AWESOME music. It's wonderful! No song-and-dance numbers and a sweeping score, composed by Bruce Broughton (Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey). The liberal use of woodwinds serves the story well, able to bring sadness in certain areas and playfulness in others.The best part in the movie is easily the flying sequence, which never fails to bring goosebumps. I would go so far as to say the third shot from the last (where Cody is pushed off the edge of the waterfall) is the best shot in Disney animation history.Overall, a fun romp that doesn't have enough appreciation.
