Song of the South's cartoon sequences are as fine as anything produced by the Disney animators.

This rather mushy combination of animation and live-action remains one of Disney's most controversial efforts.

Apparently the Disney wonder-workers are just a lot of conventional hacks when it comes to telling a story with actors instead of cartoons.

A visão deturpada de uma vida feliz de escravidão compromete o filme, mas sua história lúdica e simpática, ressaltada pelo carisma de Baskett, acaba nos conquistando.

If only Disney had been as aware of the environment they were depicting as they were inventive in their combination of live action film, cartoon animation and unforgettable songs.

Better save this for nostalgia only -- kids won't be missing anything if they never encounter this relic.

The film is not racist, but it stupidly regurgitates the old myth of happy, singing slaves who just love working on massah's plantation.
