Incredible Animals (2004-07-10)

I was lucky enough to see this with my whole family when it was first released. I bought the VHS copy since the DVD is not available yet. I will give Disney a little credit though, they are finally starting to release some of their classic movies on DVD. I miss the days of Disney movies drawing the whole family to the theater for wholesome entertainment. It is rare that they do that in this age of dysfunctional families and kids with attitude to others. Somewhere along the line they got the idea that kids think this makes them look cool. Well the first time they get out on their own and they mouth off like that to the wrong person they find out how uncool that can be.

This movie is so far above the remake it makes you wonder how Disney's staff keep their jobs. If you want a movie you can let the whole family watch and enjoy together be sure to get this one. The scenery, acting, and the animals themselves are great. When I was a kid we got a Siamese and named him Tao because of this movie. The quality of this VHS is good. I look forward to the DVD release for better picture and sound and hopefully some extras. If you have seen the remake I'm sure you will be presently surprised when you see this version. The remake tried to hard to be funny and it just isn't.

One of the more boring Disney films I've ever seen. (2003-12-31)

I am a big Disney film fan, animated or live-action. But this film, 1963's "The Incredible Journey" just didn't cut it. During most of the film, there is almost no dialogue except for a boring narration of the story by Rex Allen. I liked the remake, 1993's "Homeward Bound", much better because it had human actors doing the voices of the animals. They gave the story a lot more spark, spice, action, and adventure, as well as a lot of humor. I believe that an adventure story with animals needs a lot of action and humor, especially in the case of "The Incredible Journey". Unfortunately, this 1963 Disney adventure has virtually no action or humor or even adventure; it's pretty much an extended version of Walt Disney's True-Life nature documentaries he made during the 1950's.

Ten Thousand Times Better Than The Remake (2002-12-05)

This earlier version of the movie is straightforward storytelling, without any rediculous attitude. (I'm wagering that 90% of the reason the new Disney Movie, "Treasure Planet" failed is because of the absolutely hideous haircut the lead character wears.) Even my six year old loved this video. The nature scenery is spectacular. I hate the fact that the inferior updated version of this movie can be found on DVD but this classic version is only on video. Some of the people currently making the decisions at Disney ought to be replaced.

Great movie! (2001-09-28)

Very warm, fun, and entertaining. My 3 yr. old son and I watched this for the first time on Disney Channel. My son was thrilled with the movie and I decided to buy it to add to our video collection. Simple and very nice movie for the whole family!

Strongly recommended (2000-09-08)

A beautiful classical Disney's film. Ideal for all ages. A nice story for children and for adults who like me din't lose contat with the child we once were. The scenery is oustanding. The colours and the landscape are a gift for the eyes. The story deals with emotions and the close relantionship between animal and between animals and humans. The scenes among the animals touched my heart deeply. A must for bull terriers lovers.
