Although the mucic (lots of jazz- "Everybody Wants to be a Cat"), catch phrases (swinger, hip cat, scat cats) and some of the graphics in the animation (tie dye psychadelic backgrounds during the music) are terribly dated to the 1970's- the decade in which this film was created- this masterpiece remains a fun watch for all ages. The cats are charming (if not a bit corny in spots), the songs are catchy and the villian is not too scary. The voice of Duchess, the mother cat, is provided by Eva Gabor and she is just so soft spoken and lady like. These qualities totally come accross in the mother cat. Madame Adelaide, a glamourous and retired opera singer, treasures her cats beyond anything in her vast fortune and wants to ensure they are well cared for after her death. But when she wills her fortune to THEM before her faithful servant, Edgar, he vows to make the cats "disappear" once and for all by dumping them in the French countryside. The unsuspecting Duchess(mother cat) and her 3 kittens slowly make their way back home with the help of Thomas O'Malley, a friendly the alley cat and some other animal friends. But will Edgar be able to prevent thier return?Read full review
I love my The Aristocats (Special Edition) DVD because all the characters are hilarious and cats are one of my favourite animals. Near the end of the movie, I love that Thomas O'Mally the alley cat and his friends, an alley cat jazz band come to rescue Duchess and her kittens from their butler. I also love when the butler runs away from two country dogs after taking back his motor cycle side car and woven basket. The mouse and the horse, Fru Fru are great too, especially when they both are concerned for Duchess, her kittens and their mistress. The three geese in the movie are hilarious as well; I think they are just plain silly and they make me smile and laugh.

This animated Disney feature isn't in the same league as the studio's early masterpieces ("Snow White," "Pinocchio"), but it's still worth seeing. Set in Paris in 1910, the picture recounts the adventures of Duchess the cat and her three kittens, who are about to inherit the fortune of a wealthy opera singer. A jealous butler dumps the feline heirs out in the boondocks, and they try to find their way home with help from some amusing country cats. The animation of this era of Disney movies isn't as drop-dead gorgeous as that of the films that made the studio's reputation, but it's still hand-drawn work, and does its job as an engaging vehicle for fun characters and lively music. There's outstanding vocal work by Phil Harris, the drawling, folksy actor-singer who was a star in the big band and radio eras and did vocal work on several Disney features (he sang "The Bare Necessities" in "The Jungle Book"). Other voice talents represented are Eva Gabor, Sterling Holloway, Scatman Crothers (who sings the great song "Everybody Wants to Be a Cat"), Pat Buttram and Paul Winchell. The songs are by Disney stalwarts the Sherman Brothers, and Maurice Chevalier sings the title tune. Extras include a deleted song and a "Bath Day" short cartoon from 1946, starring Figaro the cat. "The Aristocats" was the last animated feature initiated by Walt Disney, who died in 1966. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/02/10/PKO8UQI6H.DTL&type=moviesRead full review
