The clues are in, the chase is on, and the case of the century is about to break wide open in Disney's greatest little mystery in history! Let the creators of ALADDIN and THE LITTLE MERMAID take you on an adventuresome journey through the cobblestone streets of 1897 London, where some suspicious "mousechief" is the suspenseful start to this thrilling musical adventure. Olivia, the brave daughter of a beloved London toymaker, turns to Basil of Baker Street for help with her father's disappearance. Basil's jolly assistant, Dr. Dawson, and loyal dog Toby lend a hand ... and nose ... as they sniff out clues through their charming miniature world. The final chase leads to Professor Ratigan (voiced by Vincent Price), a hard-hearted criminal whom Basil must outwit to save all of Mousedom! Now digitally remastered, fully restored and full of unforgettable characters and spectacular animation -- all leading to a climactic climb atop Big Ben -- it's elementary who you'll want to watch again and again ... THE GREAT MOUSE DETECTIVE!

Summary: A Bar Scene I Will Never Forget
Comment: Smoking, drinking, stripping and even gun violence. These are things you wouldn't expect from a Disney film. I saw the film when I was about 5 years old and remember thinking about how much fun it would be to be in the midst of a bar fight like the one in this movie. I will never forget how shocked I was to see the burlesque dancer take off her seemingly modest attire to reveal an hour glass half-dressed figure with a garter and blue fishnets. The reaction from the crowd, the sexual tension she created with her stripping- I wanted to be there!
Here's a quote from the song Let Me Be Good To You
"Hey fellas- i'll take off all my clothes. Hey fellas- there's nothing I won't do just for you!"
But apart from the bar scene, there were multiple depictions of drunkeness and more smoking than i've seen in any movie.
Regardless. . .it is an absolute CLASSIC and the kids will love how edgy and timeless it is.

Comment: My 17 year old son loved this movie so much when he was younger that he asked that we get on DVD.

Summary: classic Disney
Comment: It is classic Disney cartoon. It is just fun to watch over and over. It also marks the beginning of the end of hand drawn animation. It was the first relase of Disney to use computer animation (only one scene).
Customer Rating:
Summary: Slightly Dated but Still Enjoyable
Comment: I can see why some reviewers thought this film was slightly boring. Clearly the production techniques weren't up to par with the likes of "The Lion King" and "Aladin". It is interesting to note how Disney progressed from "Mouse Detective" to "The Little Mermaid" in four short years. Nevertheless, I find the movie charming, and thought the plot was well planned out, and the characters well developed. True, you don't have the stunning camera effects and music score that was to come with later Disney features, but this is animation at its finest at the fundamental level. Most traditional Disney animation is a work of art, and for those who study the craft, this movie is no exception.
