Creepy...
10 June 2005
This is probably one of Disney's most disturbing films. As a child the villains scared me horribly. I shied away from the film for years claiming to absolutely hate it, yet finally succumbed to watching it again couple months back.

The mousy take on Sherlock Holmes is clever and cute and the premise is simple and oh-so Disney. Still, though, at 18 years old, I was creeped out by the villains. Maybe it was the drab settings that added a level of uneasiness or Ratigan's smoky voice and queer-eye personality. In fact, with the exception of Dawson, all the characters were real drama queens. Maybe that is just the English.

Any way, this drably colorful almost classic Disney film is more suited for older children. It's still fun though. Check it out.
