Leave your thoughts about The Journey of Natty Gann.
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergAnother fondly remembered Disney flick absolutely flushed down the toilet by a pathetic full frame transfer. Sad news indeed. |
| Common Sense MediaHeather BoernerCompelling adventure too violent for some kids. |
| Miami HeraldBill CosfordThe director keeps the pacing brisk, and if he doesn't make as emotional a picture as someone else might have, The Journey of Natty Gann has a quiet dignity. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrIt's nice to see a Disney film that follows the rules of the family-film genre as Walt laid them down. |
| Washington PostPaul AttanasioIt's not very special, but it's nice to see a Disney film that follows the rules of the family-film genre as Walt laid them down, rather than trying to emulate Spielberg's empty, high-tech grandiosity. |
| The New York TimesJanet MaslinIf The Journey of Natty Gann were only a speedier, more energetic movie, Natty might have real staying power. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatHighly satisfying drama set in the 1930s about a courageous young girl's search for her father. |
| VarietyVariety StaffDirector Jeremy Paul Kagan extracts an engaging performance from Meredith Salenger as the heroine. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyThis Disney feature is mildly entertaining, boasting great costumes by Wolsky, who was Oscar-nominated for his design. |
| User ReviewLee MExcellent movie for kids and adults. I was a big fan as a child and have really enjoyed watching it again as an adult. Some scenes might be a little frightening for younger viewers (e.g., dog fighting scenes, shanty town raid scene) but otherwise a great family movie for most ages. |
