ok and i know that a lot of people will probably resent this review a watership down be a classic and a standard part of most people childhood and but see this film for the first time at the tender age of 18 and i must admit represent i really hat it . we watch this film because my sister have read the book and really enjoy it and and many people who whimper at the very word watership down their memory of see the film a child and have their emotion tear at the seam recommend it . to be honest and i wish i hadn not bother . i give it the benefit of the doubt while generally i do not like to stop watch a film half way through . this be an exception . it be really and really and excruciatingly and sickeningly dull . this film be possibly the slow thing i have ever watch ( imagine a dope up snail in space ) and and really do not do it for me . the art be alright while the background be nicely make if not a little bland and twee and yet the rabbit themselves be not very endear and the animation be quite jumpy and poorly produce . i be not go to go into huge detail about the storyline while basically it be the tale of a group of rabbit who leave their warren due to the infiltration of human in the area . generally a moralistic story about the peril of human interaction on the environment and it use anthropomorphic rabbit to put the message across . for me and i kind of wish that they would get gas and not because i be a horrible sadistic person and but because the character be uninspiring and annoy and dull and generally quite rude ( oh i be so terribly english ) . i find that i be constantly look at the clock whilst watch the film and and it take a whole 20 minute or so before anything actually happen and and even that be a terrible anticlimax . if i be to praise it in any way and i would have to admit that the concept of show child the peril of building on the countryside and hopefully unveil the arrogance of human etc etc be quite well mean . maybe it be all in general sanctimonious and preachy and but the message it try to put forth be good in it nature . the musical score be not bad and too . so and to conclude and this film be pretty poor . i couldn not watch it the whole way through and or i would probably be force to eat my own leg in sheer boredom . grant and it isn not torque bad and but it still doesn not rate highly in my eye and so i have give it a negative . hope this help .
