Would I say that "The Secret of NIMH" is great? No. But would I say it's really good? Definitely yes. When you consider what animated movies Disney, or any other company for that matter, has released after "The Lion King" back in 1994, you have to lament not just the decline, but now basically non-existent nature of traditional animated features. But when you go back to the early to mid-nineties and before, you find not just great Disney animated films, but other gems as well. "The Secret of NIMH" is one of those gems. True it follows that cliche talking animals thing, but it has unique, beautiful artwork and a strong, brave heroine, both of which make for a engaging movie experience. Sure, it isn't a cinematic classic, but in a world seemingly without the traditional animated movie, this is one that is highly favorable and enjoyable. Or maybe this whole review is just my nostalgia talking, who knows.
