cricketbat I know that this isn't considered one of the Disney "Classics," but Emperor's New Groove has some of the sharpest humor of any animated film that I know. It's a fun watch for both children and adults.

Davis P The emperor's new groove is truly an underrated Disney film. It is highly entertaining, well written and funny. The voice actors are perfect fits for their animated characters, especially Yzma. I would to take a minute to talk about the character of Yzma, she is just an awesome character, very well written, well designed, and extremely well voiced. Could there have been a better actor to voice Kronk?? Patrick Warburton is so perfect to voice Yzma's hopelessly ignorant assistant. David Spade is very fitting for the self obsessed, selfish, spoiled rotten emperor Kuzco. The story is fun, well paced, funny, and heart warming towards the end. This is one movie the whole family will surely adore. It also is a very healthy movie for children to view since it shows the before and after of Kuzco, going from being extremely selfish and materialistic to actually caring for others and becoming a nice, decent human being. I especially love the scenes that involve Yzma and kronk interacting, their characters have hilarious chemistry. I encourage everyone no matter young or old to rent or buy this the next time you see it available. "Pull the lever Kronk. WRONG LEVER!!!!!" 10/10!

datautisticgamer-74853 Before seeing it, I wondered why this film wasn't considered part of the Disney Renaissance. It did well with most critics and performed sufficiently at the box office. But after seeing it once, I see why this is officially put in the Post-Renaissance period for Disney, which could be argued as a Second Dark Age for Disney at the same time that Pixar was exploding. The animation is nice if not as appealing as Renaissance films, some of the characters can be expected to be likable or the other way around, and it does feature a subtle lesson against selfishness, which still didn't convince me since this is a movie meant for Playhouse Disney (nowadays Disney Junior). I can commend Disney for not going in the crude humor direction like with The Lion King (or Brother Bear and Home on the Range from what I've heard), but none of the jokes were ones that I, a 15 year old, found funny, not even Yzma's attempt at wit (she's supposed to be one of the more comical Disney villains). I boosted its score for attempting to branch out from just preschoolers to second graders, but I would skip this for how comedy aside, it's simply tedious.

jsele-38952 In this epic comedy from Disney, David Spade plays Emperor Kuzco, a spoiled ruler who wants to tear down a village just so he can build a summer home. But two wacky villains played by Eartha Kitt and Patrick Warburton try to put him out of his misery and accidentally give him a potion that turns him into a llama. Coming across a peasant played by John Goodman, the Emperor goes out on a journey to reclaim his throne and learn the lesson of being selfish. When it comes to doing a buddy-buddy comedy, Disney really nailed this one good. All the jokes are G rated, getting both children and adults laughing hard every time. The animation is solid and it's one of those movies that was a great way for Disney to start the new millennium.
