5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent animated movie, January 11, 2007

This review is from: The Secret of NIMH/The Secret of NIMH 2: Timmy to the Rescue (DVD)

"The Secret of N.I.M.H." is an excellent adaptation of the book "Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of N.I.M.H." Very good animation is combined with a story that only marginally diverges from the book (specifically, the book does not portray Brutus as such an inimical character, and Jenner does not make an appearance at all). The sequel "The Secret of N.I.M.H. 2" is, by comparison, only average. It completely divorces itself from the second book in the series ("Racso and the Rats of N.I.M.H.", a very good read in its own right). When compared to the first movie, both animation and story suffer. Nevertheless, it is not really painful to watch, even after viewing the first movie. I highly recommend this item, especially for the value, since "The Secret of N.I.M.H." alone costs about the same.

I hadn't seen these movies for years and I thoroughly enjoyed watching both movies just as I did the first time I saw them. I thank you very much for the rapid response to my purchase. It is always a pleasure.
