Very well executed

Doomtomylo

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

If you ask for a Disney animated classic suggestion well here's ''The Fox and the Hound'' all things was great for an animation movie; the songs, the music score, amazing animation, beautiful characters and a strong message.I actually like the french version better because I used to listen like this when i was a child and it was well done, I like the name better, it is ''Rox et Rouky'' in french Translate movie are always bad but I think this is one of the best and well made, this is my version I like, In my opinion I think Mickey Rooney was not a great voice actor for Tod as an adult, he sounded like bugs bunny he sound too old for a 1 year old fox and they cast Kurt Russel (which is a perfect choice) for Copper, I don't know how they could cast Mickey Rooney as pre-adult Tod, Mickey Rooney is a legend but his performance of Tod was wrong to me.It is my Favourite Disney movie, the best of my childhood in my old Disney VHS's my favourite was this one and not only my favourite Disney movie it is also one of my favourite of all time. Probably the best of its generation. It is a Disney Masterpiece and i cannot see why someone would disagree on that. I think it should be higher than 7,3/10 it should be like 8/10 or 7,6 at least. Even in my life I had my best friend in my childhood I know him like 13 years ago in the time we grew up and having different thinking but we are still friends after all and I always think about this movie and thinking of my childhood. ''Rox'' will always be my Disney character Avatar. A good animation movie to watch.

The Fox and the Hound is nothing more than another Disney film about animals gallivanting around, having merry old time. At least to a child. Seen as an adult, it's a bit more than that.The movie is about two young animals. A fox named Todd, taken in by an elderly woman and nursed to adulthood as her pet. And a hunting dog named Copper, owned by a curmudgeon aging hunter. The film follows their lives through their days as two innocent young cubs and into adulthood where their roles in the so called circle of life start to assert themselves.The story itself isn't all that complicated and I'm pretty sure most of its underlying themes go straight over the head of most children. But its those themes that give this movie its depth and weight. The themes of childhood innocence, societal roles and expectations, defying one's place in the grand scheme of things, of friendship, bravery and regret. It's also one of the Disney films with an ending that isn't pure sugarcoated saccharine, fittingly so, given the subject matter.The Fox and the Hound is not one my favourite Disney films, mainly because I find the two main characters to be somewhat bland, but I do find it to be one of the subtlest Disney movies and well worth a watch as an adult even if you haven't seen it as a child.

The simple story about a fox and a dog has many things to teach us about compassion, friendship, and acceptance.It's tough to try to find something bad about this film, maybe one could argue that the animation isn't as good as in later Disney films but I think many would agree that it is much more charming. The hand-drawn look has something that really stands out and adds a more human touch. Looking at the later Disney iterations where everything is a perfect line at a perfect angle gets really old for me personally and it stabs me in the eye instead of letting the imperfect be imperfect. But I guess that goes for most of modern culture where everything is made to be as perfect as possible. If you look at the static music of today for example and compare it to the groove which jazz and funk musicians of the 40s and 50s you'll know what I'm talking about... That utterly charming "human" quality... This film has a ton of it.However,I don't think I've ever been inflicted with so much emotion from watching a film. I honestly cried my heart out! It's a lovely film with lots of character. It doesn't rely on gimmicks(as so much of the modern Disney films do) rather it relies on strong writing with no scene being unimportant.A shining gem from the past that taught me several heartfelt lessons.

This is one of my all-time favorite cartoons ever since my childhood.It shows us unlikely but really beautiful friendship between little Fox and Puppy who is being trained to become Hunting Hound...Several events take place and they are forced to become enemies and their lives change from its core...They soon have to adjust to extreme changes but eventually learn what is the most important thing...This story is so wonderful, heartwarming and beautifully made that it can't leave anyone indifferent. And it sure brings back great memories ... ah nostalgia ... I would recommend it to everyone. And it will always have a place in your heart.
