Advantages: Great Storyline, Very well written to engage you into the adventure world of these animals Disadvantages: Little to say here but i guess it could be printed on a little better quality paper to be perfect!

Advantages: A good alround story Disadvantages: Can seem rushed at points.
Redwall - The animated Movie was something that I had been looking forward to for quite awhile. After reading the book (and subsequently, most of the other books in the series) I fell in love with the feel of the stories, and the involvement that it gave me. I really felt part of the story as I read it. At first, this was the main reason why I didn't go for the film. I thought that I wouldn't get the buzz that I got from reading it, as I was watching it, and the fact that the film can be watched in one sitting (in fact, the film is only 75 minutes long, shorter than most common movies). When I finally sat down to watch this however, I found the complete opposite.

Advantages: Intelligent and well made Disadvantages: Too long

I would hardly describe the film as a failure, as its good points makes it little short of astonishing at times, both through its effects and its plotting (there is one superb sequence where one of the characters deliberately allows herself to drown to save her husband in the hope that he can revive her afterwards). But I think that ...
