A lightweight affair... Despite some momentary flashes of brilliance, this is no successor to the great Fantasia.

Reviews for Fantasia 2000
The rest of these animated sequences depend on gimmickry, cuteness, or facile ideology.

Fantasia/2000 will no doubt become a Disney perennial, but that does not by definition make it a classic.
10/18/08
It provides some fine artists the chance to stretch and frolic, even as it reminds today's audiences of animation's limitless borders.
09/07/08
Top CriticLike its predecessor, Fantasia 2000 offers a plotless string of beautifully animated vignettes set to music; unlike its predecessor, it's a good deal shorter and far less tedious for it.
09/07/08
This new installment perhaps aims slightly lower than the original.
07/14/07
This new Fantasia corrects some of the flaws of the old movie, but generates some new flaws of its own.
02/24/06
This must be the most belated sequel the movies have produced.
01/26/06
The IMAX presentation of this millennial sequel is a welcome addition to the family, though it seems to lack the heart of the original.
12/06/05
A roller-coaster ride of energy, utilizing incredible animated imagery, elegant classical music and state-of-the-art technology.
05/14/03
Will no doubt become a Disney perennial, but that does not by definition make it a classic.
03/10/03
My only complaint is that it was over too soon.
02/08/03
It is a reminder that, after all these years, memories of the first Fantasia can still conjure magic in the mind.
12/03/02
This stuffy sequel features seven new 'movements' and 'The Sorcerer's Apprentice,' the buzz clip from the 1940 original.
06/18/02
In Fantasia 2000 a simple spell is rediscovered: elegant storytelling, masterful animation and timeless music make movie magic.
06/17/02
Big mistake.
03/24/02
As with the original Fantasia, the new film is a mixture of artistically respectable and mediocre moments, which for overall ambition and range, has no parallel in the world of contemporary animation.
03/22/02
Top CriticA true groundbreaker. And it's also the best IMAX movie ever made.
