Underrated the best film ever created by Disney
Great introduction to the film noir genre for kids
An often-underappreciated classic. Its darker tone, charming characters, and Victorian theme make it a fun addition to the Disney vault.
Super sweet children's movie that I really loved as a kid... It's a little darker than Disney but no less entertaining....
A decent Sherlock adaptation with charming animation. The main character is a bit unlikeable but the rest of the characters are great!
The bat & final clock battle gave me nightmares but still a classic lol
Endearing and witty movie that has a unique perspective. The villain is great and the movie itself is fun.
It is Sherlock Holmes but more kid friendly. It’s very well done, the animation is amazing.
Ok movie but the ending sequence saves it, love the animation for it. If you like Sherlock Holmes you’ll love it but not really my thing.
An instant classic from Disney, even if it’s not talked about often.
