This is one of my favourite films ever. It has more humanity, grace and self awareness than most live action films AND an amazing score. Lyrics and arrangement of songs are absolutely spot on and direction is tight. If you've seen South Park and enjoyed it, but never seen the movie, then you must; it is an unexpected, fascinating and downright f-ing fantastic treat!

I grew up watching only a few films and the Hunchback of Notre Dame was one of them.
I used to get my mam to rent it from the local video shop over and over again, and in the end the owner just ended up giving us the video.
Sadly, since my VHS player stopped working last year, i have had to convert all my videos onto DVD, which is a pain and costs money.
I think the Hunnchback of Notre Dame is an amazing story! Especially for children and especially for those growing up in the world today. I believe, and know, the moto to the story is dont be afraid of who you are, be proud. And since there's a lot of people today that are afraid to be themselves. I think this story is s good lesson!
The film has an amazing storyline..okay ... Read More:

1) the songs are awesome. "Gaston" had me chuckling away.
2) the animation, especially in the snow and the forests, is just amazing
3) you can read as much depth as you want into the story.
Unlike virtually every other fairy tale, especially disney stories, belle isn't a princess. She's not even all that poor. She's a middle class girl in a rural environment. And the thing that she likes most in the world? Reading. how awesome is that? she doesn't just fall in love with the main guy in town, she goes for the guy with the biggest library. Similarly, the one who really learns his lesson is the beast, for being mean to that old woman, who was in fact a witch. So the aristocrat was brought ... Read More:

I'll keep this as short as possible.
I remember around 7 years ago, I watched this for the first time. I was quite young and I was absolutely mesmerized by it. Today, I had a craving to watch it again for the first time in 7 years. I dug out the old dusty VHS from the attic and played it. After watching it once again, I was completely blown away. The animation has not a aged a bit and the story is as touching as ever.
Don't pass the chance up to watch this classic. A legendary film that I shall remember for the rest of my life.

As a conesuer of quality Batman stories (see my other reviews!) I liked this one. Not quite as good as 'Mask of the Phantasm' but that's pretty stiff opposition!
The story is excellent, it's well animated in true Batman Neo-forties-Gothic and the voices are superb as they always are in these animations.
Get this one, Bat-fans, and you won't be dissapointed!
