Home on the Range

Home on the Range was Disney's final hand-drawn film, or at least it felt like it was going to be he final one. Thankfully this was not the case, because this is one terrible way to end decades of great films.

If you're scratching your head trying to figure out what this film is about, that's ok, it was largely forgettable. The basic story revolves around three cows who are going to try capturing an evil man who is stealing herds of cows so that he can buy all the land. Also their farm is in danger of being next, which is what actually prompts them to go on the long journey to bring about not only justice, but cash in on the reward to save their farm.

This...will be a very short review. It's quite likely one of my least favourite animated classics and is rather hard to actually talk about. The animation isn't terrible, but it's not great. We have a very annoying scene where Roseanne's character arrives on the little farm and disrupts it's peace. Also this film has Buck who is quite possibly one of the most annoying sidekicks I have ever seen.

Is there anything that actually saves the film? The voice cast is well chosen, and seeing the three cows bonding is nice but there is just so much that falls flat.
