Summary: Surprise Surprise
Review: Reminds me of why I watch chartoons, the movie is by far one of the funniest movies ever. It's not stupid funny either, it actually has a crazy plot that the story revolves around. I really don't want to spoil the movie, it makes it so much better if you see it for the first time not knowing anything about it. I will just give you a run down that this movie has no faults, it's well scripted, well voiced and well drawin. There's nothing wrong with the movie, I would buy it twice but then that would be useless... Okay... but I like it a lot and I highly recomend it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: MY FAVORITE DISNEY MOVIE
Review: This is a story of a spoiled brat that you love to laugh at because of all the crazy mistakes he makes. I never get tired of watching this movie with my son. My husband even watches this one without the ever common "Not this again!" The supporting characters make this movie. The one liners are great even after watching a few dozen times.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: That Reddish Squirrel is a Kinkle-esque School Shooter
Review: Disney must not have had their collective claws too deep into the creative process of this flick, cause The Emperor's New Groove is so funny that David Lo Pan forgot about his fetish for green-eyed babes. Wow. It's not Spade or Goodman or whoever plays Kronk that's responsible for this epic work, it's just the animators and the writers. Double Wow. Everything from the sadistic squirrel to Kronk's guttural noises while pouring poisoned wine to Izma's belly-botton-level bosom is classic, sheer classic.

That squirrel is hiding some kind of revelatory cinematic secret, the kinds that are evident in the "Indeed!" sequence from Capenter's Big Trouble in Little China and the Lamp Dance Trip Out from Raimi's Evil Dead II. Note that the squirrel looks into the camera FOR ONE FRAME just as the camera begins to pull back and just before he finishes his balloon llama. He is sadistic and strangely omniscient. And he knows I am telling you his secrets.

I must flee.

Summary: I can see Bob Hope in this movie
Review: This movie is hilarious. Anyone any age)who is a fan of the old classic slapstick comedies (think "Road to...")will appreciate this clever and entertaining flick. My son is 3, almost 4, and it is entirely age appropriate for him, as well as us adults! Rent it, buy it, just see it!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not as good as expected.
Review: It was an okay movie. Some funny moments. But with David Spade and John Goodman in it, I just thought it would have been better. It is a good kids movie - I guess it was the adult in me that was disappointed. Usually these movies appeal to both kids and adults. This one didn't do that. My kids don't ask to watch it too often either. Maybe they didn't like it as much as I thought either!? Rent it.

Summary: The Funniest Disney Cartoon I Have Seen In A Long Time!!
Review: IF YOU ARE DEBATING ON WHETHER OR NOT TO PURCHASE THIS MOVIE, GET IT!! YOU WONT BE SORRY!!
I purchased this movie here at Amazon[.com] for my 2 1/2 year old son. Boy am I glad I did!! A friend of mine was visiting when it arrived in the mail. So we just popped it into the VCR and we were going to chat while my son watched it but WE couldn't keep our attention off the movie!! It was SO cute!! We really just couldn't quit laughing! One of the lightest, funniest films Disney has made. Very entertaining movie and my son just adores it!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Boom, Bab y!
Review: This is my second favorite Disney movie (Aladdin is my first). What I like about this movie has mostly to do with the slapstick comedy. Not too many Disney animated movies have this much slapstick in it. Even my (soon-to-be) two year old son laughs at it. He loves when they show Yzma explaining why she "has gotten into this bad habit of running the country behind my back" (Kuzco's words), and they show a close-up of something that was stuck between her teeth!

Yzma has to be my favorite Disney villain. Sure, she's "living proof that dinsaurs once roamed the earth", but it's due to the fact that she has to be the most humorous of all the villains, other than Jafar from Aladdin. Also, I think that Kronk is hilarious as her right-hand man.

I also like the character Pacha. He didn't want to help the emporer in the first place (the emporer did want to destroy his village and put his summer home--Kuzcotopia--there), but he did it out of the kindness of his heart. I always like characters like that.

If you are a big Disney fan, you should get this even if you haven't seen it. Or, if you don't want to buy it, rent it. I guarantee you'll be laughing!

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hillarious Disney Comedy
Review: Of all of the animated films Disney has released in the 21st century, "The Emperor's New Groove" just might be the best thus far. The story centers around a young, self-centered South American emperor named Kuzco who rules his kingdom with the motto "it's all about me!" Kuzco's perfect world is shattered when his disgruntled former advisor, Yzma, casts a magic spell on him that turns him into a llama and plans to do him in. To regain his human form, he must work together with Patcha, a humble and steadfast peasant, and get back to Kuzco's palace before Yzma finds them and finishes the job. The result is a fast and fun irreverent comedy with a smart script and great acting. Eartha Kit and Patrick Warburton, who play the evil Yzma and her dim-witted sidekick Kronk, are a highlight of the film. Both bring the characters to life wonderfully and provide some of the film's funniest moments. While not the most artistic or technologically advanced film Disney has ever released, it is certainly one of its most fun. I would recommend this for just about anyone looking for a great comedy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Why do we even have that lever?"
Review: Kuzco is a spoiled ruler. He wants to build his pool on top of a hill which is home to a village. Kuzco is turned into a Llamaa and he needs help to get the evil advisor who turned him into an animal.
The story is told by Kuzco's point of view and you'll get the jist that he's spoiled and self-centered. However, Kuzco does changes his mind about building his pool on the village at the end of the movie.
