This is still one of my favorite animated

This is still one of my favorite animated movies. It combines so many different emotions so well: a cute and loving family, the urgency and danger of fleeing (/moving) your home with dangerous and action-filled scenes, and dark and scary moments involving cats and owls, clearly some of a mouse's biggest fears. Mrs Brisby herself is an absolutely lovely, beautiful character. Right from the start you see and feel how she's a loving mother, polite and shy. But due to adversary she has to rise about her gentleness and fear and really shows the strength you can develop when fighting for your loved ones. The music is really nice and fitting and I'm happy they just re-released an extended soundtrack. But maybe even more impressive is the visual style. As one came to expect from Don Bluth movies of that time, everything is beautiful, each single background of each scene a gorgeous painting even outside the movie's context, one thing I really miss in modern animation, as much as I enjoy modern stuff as well. Some added, beautiful sparkle effects on things like her medallion or the shiny lights in the rat's hideout, just lovely!! All voice actors do a great job, but I especially love Mrs Brisby herself, the loving warmth in her voice, the gentle tone when asking for help and especially how she still tries to stay gentle and polite when obviously irritated by Jeremy again. I can certainly recommend this movie! I want to support this lovely single mother and hug her and her kids so much! - If you like the movie and don't mind reading books, I also really recommend the book it is based on. The book has no magical items, no clear antagonist (Jenner is only mentioned) and describes much more of what happens around NIMH, so, even if you know one, watching/reading the other still puts a new spin on it.

Complicated story for kids, but extremely well-done animated tale...

1st watched 5/13/2001 - 8 out of 10 (Dir-Don Bluth): Complicated story for kids, but extremely well-done animated tale of a group of rats who are experimented on by NIMH(National Instiute for Mental Health) and become smart. They escape and live in an underground existence stealing electricity from a farmer. The plan is to generate their own electricity and be able to move to a safer locale, but we don't exactly know how this is going to happen. Dom Deluise has a humorous role as a clumsy love-lorned crow to keep the seriousness of the story at bay. This movie is excellent from beginning to end and deserved more recognition than it got(probably because it's not Disney), but launched a series of Bluth animated movies to give animated movie fans an alternative to Disney.
