Hunchback shines through its darkest moments
4 April 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Hunchback of Notre Dame is one of the best Disney animated movies ever. It's also one of the darkest. And that's why love it.

Best parts: The animation is fantastic. Everything feels grand, huge, and epic. The characters are great, especially the villain, Frollo. He's very intimidating and very complex. The darkest parts, especially Hellfire, make this film unique and very special. I forgot to mention that the choir is AWESOME! It makes everything epic and dark like something from Lord of the Rings.

Parts that don't work: The comedy in this movie is hit and miss, and the gargoyles are annoying as heck.

If you're a fan of the original Victor Hugo novel, you're probably not going to like it. But I didn't really mind the changes they made, especially the ending where Quasimodo and Esmeralda lives. It's dark, epic, and very unique for a Disney film. I highly recommend Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
