    GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
    Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
    Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) I have watched the series when it was on TV, and I have absolutely love it! Like with "Redwall," this series is what got me to read the original book.As I said (like about million times), I was shocked and flabbergasted by the negativity I would heard on the internet, 'cause I have love the animation and the brilliant casting that was in put into the show. All you fans to the original novel might not like this, but I love Blackberry as girl, because she could land a cute guy like Campion. I also love Hazel & Primrose, they are favorite couple. I know Primrose is Hyzenthlay, the main girl from the book and 1978 film, because children wouldn't be able to pronounce the name.
    ethereal_heart Now I know all of us are used the novel version of this classic tale and the old movie version. But don't judge this before seeing it, now there might be a few changes you might notice yes...but still you might find a few interesting things here.For example: They toned down a few violent scenes. They added a few more extra characters and extended it more with a few themes you might find in a soap opera, along with epic struggles and adventures.Some may not approve of the changes in the remake, but I like it, it's still has a some things similar to the book and the characters are real enjoyable along with their roles in the story. I have to say this is one of the most pleasant retelling of Watership down and it's a wonderful series for everyone to enjoy.
    inshadowz I first saw the Norwegian dubbed adaptation of the first part, and was horrified. With the original English voices it was marginally better, but I could still have done well without it. I think my greatest handicap in this is that I'd read the book before watching the cartoon. I swear I will never, ever watch the remaining episodes.Everything essential has been stripped from the original story, and what little they left in is drowned in poor animation and amputated dialog. The {original English} cast have done a very good job with the voices, all things considered, but sadly it makes little difference with the final result. It looks cheaply made and the characters lack any hint of life, just like any run-of-the-mill cartoon aimed at children who just want to see a bunch of cute bunnies moving about and talking. In my humble opinion, this one is not worth the watch, no matter how old you are.
    orcagurl I don't see why most of the comments are negative. This cartoon actually makes you think and actually has a serious plot. I mean, look at Sponge Bob Square pants! It isn't a show full of nonsense and crap, it's beautifully animated and challenges the little kids watching it to think and try broaden their perspectives on different situations.Sure, it has it's cheesy morals about understanding and friendship and unity, but it has to or it wouldn't be considered quite appropriate for young kids now would it? But it still retains some of the melancholy, beautifully depressing atmosphere Adams gave his masterpiece of a novel.Watership Down's a great show. You should at least watch a few episodes. And the second season, though straying greatly from Adams' novel is still good. More action-packed and a more creative story line, now that Adams' story line is done and they can expand with their own ideas.
