The Great Mouse Detective
SCORE: 89
The Great Mouse Detective has made it to Blu-ray. Family Friendly
Gaming was provided the Blu-ray + DVD. This is referenced as the Mystery
in the Mist Edition. This is not my first time watching and reviewing
The Great Mouse Detective. I think I liked it more this time than the
last time.
The Sherlock Holmes storyline is fantastic to see in an animated movie.
The animation is fantastic in The Great Mouse Detective. There are
certain moments of peril for different characters. At least one
character is eaten by a cat. A seedy bar has a singer and dancer who
likes to shake some things around. The tough mice fall in love with her
over it.
The voice actors are distinct and distinguished. The songs are catchy
and there is a bonus feature where we can sing along with the Ratigan
song. That song will get stuck in your head. It it is still rattling
around in my brain. I appreciate how respectful the characters are in
The Great Mouse Detective, even the evil ones.
Both the Blu-ray and DVD contain all of the bonus features. They are:
"So you Think you can Sleuth," The Making of The Great Mouse Detective,
and "The World's Greatest Criminal Mind" Sing-Along Song. If you already
have the DVD version of The Great Mouse Detective there is not much new,
except for the enhanced high definition.
I noticed a real strong theme of loyalty and friendship in The Great
Mouse Detective this time around. The doctor convinces Basil to keep
fighting. Do not give up. Later Basil convinces the doctor to stay with
him as they get another case. Their friendship is a strong theme
throughout this movie.
I hope to see additional movies based on these characters. The Great
Mouse Detective is a fantastic film that has withstood the test of time.
The Great Mouse Detective is as good today as when it was originally
released.
