Ah, the classic Romeo and Juliet story- warring families, two companions, tragic endings. The Fox and the Hound has a very powerful message, brought together with sweet animation and Disney storytelling that no one can top. This is a very good movie, although I wouldn't rank it as high as films like Pinocchio or Lady and the Tramp.
Musically, this film leaves a lot to be desired. It just doesn't have the same memorable tunes as some of the other Disney films. The score seems rather generic... nothing really special. However, the voice acting of young Copper is just precious.
The animation was bit plain for my tastes, but not all of it was bad. For example, the way young Tod and Copper were animated as pups was absolutely adorable! In fact, this movie would probably get more, "Awww,"s than laughs. The subplot of the birds chasing the caterpillar, in my opinion, was rather boring. I would've liked to see them focus more on building the main characters.
But despite its flaws, the Fox and the Hound is truly one of the more powerful Disney films. It's message is timeless, it's characters memorable. All in all, the Fox and the Hound may not be one of the best Disney films, but it is certainly not the worse. I enjoyed it.
