Simply and plainly put, this is the best animated film which was ever produced. (This is, of course, just my own opinion, but I think you can at least agree with me a little.)WHAT??? You've never seen it before?! Well, I guess that's okay, but make sure you rent it and watch it sometime. It's still a great film even for adults. What was best about it was the fact that its animation quality was flawless. Don Bluth did his usual fantasic job in the animation department, and came out with a great end product. I think what made this the best movie he did was the fact that he didn't write it. (Sorry Bluth fans, but the plot lines and dialogue in stuff like "All Dogs Go to Heaven" just didn't cut it. :(  The combined work of the author, Robert C. O'Brien and Bluth's animation fit together perfectly. I would have liked it better if had stayed closer to the book (no mystical "stone" was ever brought up in the novel), but if they had, my favorite character might have died. Justin was the coolest guy ever, and I looked to him as a best friend when I was real little.

This movie did pull together quite a following, and many people have their own spaces on the web devoted to ratty fandom:
Jeremy Hodges - Daphne Lage - David Pochron - Brian Davidson
