The Aristocats | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

Before the disastrous Aughts, was there a worse decade for Disney animated features than the 1970s?

A cute, feline version of "Lady and the Tramp" that should enthrall families . . . and, of course, cat lovers.

Jazz and hijinks make this Disney cat tale meow.

Insofar as the film has any real ambition driving it, that ambition seems to be that the Disney brand name must be kept alive until somebody could figure out what to do with it.

The animals' exuberance is so infectious and their "acting" so true to human life that by the fadeout The Aristocats does, indeed, give the audience paws for reflection.
