| Sarasota Herald-TribuneChristopher LloydA charming computer animated tale about a little mouse who travels through the woods, rendered beautifully and in rhyme. |
| Observer (UK)Phil HoganLovely animation. I particularly liked the casual mischief with the ants. Excellent. |
| User ReviewMariano Hde los mejores cuentos infantiles, bien lograda animación, la narración de Helena Bonham Carter que toca las fibras del corazón y la música fantástica |
| User ReviewMatthew GAwesome, adorable and beautiful animated short film that has an easy to follow and engaging story, colorful characters and a pure heart of gold. I also loved it's laidback, calm and gentle mood, setting and music. One of my favorites! |
| User ReviewG Richard BAn adaptation comes together where script writers build necessary new constructs from the same allegory as the author. In this movie, everyone is on the same page, except perhaps its goy audience. |
| User ReviewSabrina Lvery cute and well done. also really pretty. |
| User ReviewFavio VHermosa historia en la cual un raton logra sobrevivir a base de astucia |
| User ReviewSuzanne AI adore this movie. Great for kids or adults. My only complaint is that it is too short! I would of loved for this to be a full length film. |
| User ReviewAnthony LThe book was a wonderful little story for children and the film does it total justice. It can keep children (and myself) with a short attention span quite easily mesmerised for the 25 minute duration.... over and over again. |
| User ReviewCaleb CCan't really say there is anything wrong with this beautiful soon-to-be holiday classic short. The music works very well here too, and I am sure this will be a front runner for best animated short this year--although, it was made in 2009, it took a while to get released, I guess. |
