All the voice actors do an excellent job, particularly Carroll, who practically steals the show as Ursula, and Wright, whose Jamaican crab accent is funny and lovable.

its best moments are certainly as delightful as anything the Mouse Factory has ever produced...
A movie that's so creative and so much fun it deserves comparison with the best Disney work of the past.
