"It’s always hard to fault a classic Disney animation film. This one reworks the Sherlock Holmes tales, with mice alter egos. The result  is entertaining but also surprisingly sophisticated, with the cute characters but also the meticulously studied settings, like the frightening sequence in the toy store or the the cove of Basil’s arch rival: Professor Ratigan, voiced by none other than Vincent Price."
