An American Tail: Fievel Goes West—not as high-spirited as An American Tail—seems to have lost the imaginative freshness of the first film in the series. The music and singing stand among the best in animation films, the animation is as good as the original film, but it just doesn’t have the entertainment value of the original story.

Storyline
Fievel’s (voice of Phillip
Glasser) family continues to have challenges with the cats and decides to move
west. They find that there are challenges wherever one lives and the west is no
exception to this rule.

Nibbelink and Simon Wells for their directing efforts. Thank you to Executive

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Yes. Watchable for the songs. But, besides that, it seems to lose it in imagination.
