THE RESCUERS DOWN UNDER (Theatrical Release USA 1990)

 Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì 

The Rescuers Down Under rehashes the previous Rescuers movie with new scenery, new bad guy while reprising the voices of Bob Newhart and Eva Gabor for continuity. The audience connectivity to the original story is lacking in this performance due to that rehash. It is a suitable watch and has great animation.
