	Movie Review - Hercules (1997) - eFilmCritic
		Part of the charm of this movie is that Hercules is such a rare item: A three-dimensional, sympathetic MALE character in a Disney cartoon.
		Three things make this a particularly original Disney movie: The characters are drawn stylishly, rather than realistically; there are TWO two-parents families, with no deaths among them; and the villain is more funny than scary.
		Fortunately, "Hercules," which opens Friday, shows that the answer is no. "Hercules" is a throwback to the good ol' days of "Aladdin" -- funny, fast-paced, with references to everything from "The Karate Kid" to "I Love Lucy," and some dead-on satire of merchandising, mass-marketing, and the icons we falsely consider to be "heroes."

	The Emperor's New Groove Movie Review at Hollywood Video
		Unlike the energetic, dance-themed trailers for Groove, the film itself is not an antic musical comedy in the tradition of Disney's far superior Hercules; it is a simple, moderately paced, character-based fable which opens and closes with zippy Sting-penned tunes.
		In a twist on the tried-and-true Disney character dynamic, Groove's most compassionate character, Pacha, is now the tag-along to Spade's self-satisfied and completely charmless Kuzco.
		In the Disney tradition, Nik Ranieri (Hercules, Beauty and the Beast) and his creative team studied llamas for inspiration in developing the transformed emperor's hilarious, guanaco movements.
