Title: Whistle an Unhappy Tune....
Review: What started out as a promising idea, (An animated version of a classic broadway show) Turned out to be a woefully misguided flop. In trying to compete with disney, Warner Bros simply tried to imitate the disney style without the substance. Oh sure, the voices are good enough, but not memorable and the changes in the plot were unecessary and at times ridiculous. Had they simply animated one of the existing soundtracks to this classic musical (the broadway revivial with lou diamond phillips would have been great to use) the film as a whole would have turned out much better. Over all the film is rentable, but only barely. If you want to have your kids see "the King and I" stick with the Bryner/Kerr film version.
Is the review positive or negative?
