An American Tail: Fievel Goes West

Watch it as kid loved it! watched it again with my own kids and they loved it too. I will warn you that if your a protective parent that there is smoking, violence and makeup ( I don't like my girls wearing makeup at 4 years old). its not as bad as it sounds and very mild compared to most kids films of today, I like to know before letting my kids see and so thought you might too.

Love this film! My first copy did not play all the way through but the sellar went out of his way to ensure i had a new copy that i'm pleased to say runs perfectly. Love the bit where Tiger learns to be a dog and gets taught 'the layzeee eye'. Really pleased with the price, customer service and product 5/5

Arrived next day in good condition. Used to watch this with my boys who enjoyed it, so purchased this for my granddaughter who thought it was very funny. Simple story, easy to follow, not too long. John Cleese voice is purrfect for Cat A. Whal. I have also purchased for my 30 year old as he loved it so much when he was 20+ years younger.

i was a kid when this first came out and loved it then. it is still cute and gives my 2 year old some fun. I used ton live next to the people who were involved in making it in Ireland back in the 1980s so was great so see again. Still as good as ever. Fievel is great!

Wicked voice acting from John Cleese

I loved these cartoons growing up and I was so pleased to find them so I could share them with my daughter.

I always loved this film as a child and now my little boy watches and loves it too. A timeless classic.

I was very pleased with the DVD's quality as it arrived with no scratches or damage, but after getting halfway through the film it froze and stopped working. It will not play past a certain point no matter how much i try to fix it

Lured out west by the crafty Cat R. Waul, and Fievel joins forces with famed lawdog Wylie Blurp to thwart a sinister plot to transform unsuspecting settlers into...mouseburgers!

The Frankie Laine song "Rawhide" is played at the tumbleweed scene, although the version used is from ‘The Blues Brothers’ film. This sequence was designed and laid-out by an uncredited Alan Friswell, a special effects expert and stop-motion animator who was employed by the studio at the time.

But with this 1991 sequel ‘AN AMERICAN TAIL: FIEVEL GOES WEST,’ is the final big screen outing for the Mousekewitz family to date, and sees Fievel’s family uprooted once again, with mean cats clearing New York of its mouse population and relocating them to the Wild West. Complete with legendary James Stewart voicing broken-down lawdog Wylie Burp, ‘AN AMERICAN TAIL: FIEVEL GOES WEST’ is an amiable sequel to the 1986 animated smash featuring the Russian immigrant mouse. ‘AN AMERICAN TAIL: FIEVEL GOES WEST’ is the second film following An American Tail. It is set chronologically fourth in the in-series timeline. The film was not directed by Don Bluth, but was instead directed by Phil Nibbelink and Simon Wells. It is the first animated film for Universal Studios and Amblin Entertainment. Because of having different directors and a different animation team working on it, it differs considerably from the first film, in both look and tone. ‘AN AMERICAN TAIL: FIEVEL GOES WEST’ continues the saga of the Mousekewitzes, a plucky family of immigrant mice who, in the animated 1986 hit "An American Tail," made their way from Czarist Russia to America, naively believing they would find the streets paved with cheese. The sequel finds the family living a miserable hand-to-mouth existence in a New York City tenement and longing for a better life. Young Fievel Mousekewitz, whose voice is again supplied by Phillip Glasser in a piping boyish voice, dreams of becoming a Wild West lawman like his idol, the legendary canine Wylie Burp. His sister, Tanya, yearns to be a singer also. When we see all the mice get on the train and it sets off to the West Coast of America, and when you see it travelling right across America, the train is very much in the Disney cartoon style, especially like the one in the animated film ‘DUMBO’ and I am just wondering if it was a deliberate use of animation. In the West, Wylie Burp is surrounded by the Cactus Cat Gang, hopelessly outnumbered, but refuses to back down. Calling himself "Philly the Kid", Fievel Mousekewitz rushes to his aid. Wylie insists that it is too tough and that Fievel try to get out while he still can. However, Fievel refuses to let Wylie go down alone. He whips out his pistols and starts shooting at the cats, quickly disarming them and causing them to flee. Grateful for being rescued, Wylie thanks Fievel and hands him a badge. Suddenly, Cat R. Waul appears on a store behind Fievel. Wylie warns Fievel, who promptly turns around and fires a shot. Mama Mousekewitz is heard calling Fievel for his supper. Fievel's bullet turns into a cork tied to his gun, which changes to a toy gun. The rest of the scenery changes from the West to New York and Fievel's adventure are shown to have just been his imagination. At their home, Tanya Mousekewitz is singing "Somewhere Out There" out the window. However, their human neighbours throw fruit and vegetables in her direction, much to her dismay. However, Papa urges her to keep singing, hoping that they'll throw something for desert. Fievel, still acting like a cowboy, bursts in saying his come to "rustle [himself] up some grub". Mama is displeased by his lateness, but Fievel claims that he had to save Wylie Burp, who was surrounded by the Cactus Cat Gang. Mama calls that a tall tale and sends him to wash his hands, despite Fievel's objection that he washed yesterday. Among a rich, eccentric cast, James Stewart provides the voice of lazy sheriff Wylie Burp and Dom DeLuise steps in as Tiger, Fievel's companion. Directors Phil Nibbelink and Simon Wells recapture the flavour of classic Westerns through vivid camerawork and a painstaking attention to detail. From the gloomy streets of the East to the bright skies of the West, this provides young viewers with a lively and engaging portrait of American immigrant life. The animated film features two original songs with music by James Horner and lyrics by Will Jennings. "The Girl I Left Behind," a peppy bluegrass number, is performed by Tanya in the Green River saloon, where she makes a sensational debut under the aegis of Miss Kitty. Cathy Cavadini, the voice of Tanya, also sings "Dreams to Dream," a saccharine ballad that is this film's answer to the original movie's hit song, "Somewhere Out There." It is reprised over the final credits by Linda Ronstadt. ‘AN AMERICAN TAIL: FIEVEL GOES WEST’ cleverly draws on the oft-expressed thought that the mythic West was largely an immigrant’s wide-eyed dream of what America should be, in opposition to hellish big-city reality and the old country left behind. Phillip Glasser’s sweet rendition of the mouse’s voice is a major asset, as are the voice parts of Dom DeLuise, as Fievel’s scene-stealing companion, a scaredy-cat who turns brave; John Cleese, as the unctuously villainous Cat R. Waul; and Amy Irving, as the brassy saloon entertainer Miss Kitty. Sadly, there is not much of a plot to speak of, but I still enjoyed the further adventures of Fievel and his Mousekewitzes family. Regardless of how many may dislike ‘AN AMERICAN TAIL: FIEVEL GOES WEST,’ there is still a general consensus that this animated film is superior to the later direct-to-video sequels. It also tends to be seen as the best ever sequel to a Don Bluth film, since most others are not highly regarded and although he has not been specific about why he was not being able to follow the story, Don Bluth himself has expressed disliking the film. There are excellent set-pieces, and the lovably-drawling James Stewart is value for money as the mentor character. There are witty ditties from the pen of the late James Horner that kids will enjoy singing along to. It’s a title that’s likely to be loved by younger viewers, though it has less universal appeal than the original, because the themes aren’t as rooted in human experience so it packs less of an emotional punch. The animation is beautiful and refreshing stark in places; the muted colours are a treat for the mature eye. AN AMERICAN TAIL: FIEVEL GOES WEST MUSIC TRACK LIST SOMEWHERE OUT THERE [Performed by Cathy Cavadini] WAY OUT WEST [Written by James Horner and Will Jennings] RAWHIDE [Performed by The Blues Brothers] DREAMS TO DREAMS [Performed by Cathy Cavadini] THE GIRL YOU LEFT BEHIND [Performed by Cathy Cavadini] DREAMS TO DREAMS (Final Version) [Performed by Linda Ronstadt] Blu-ray Video Quality – Universal Studios Home Entertainment brings you this Blu-ray disc release with a very nice 1080p encoded Technicolor image presentation. When you see certain scenes in New York the images can seem soft, but with the start of the animated film the quality is quite stunning and very colourful. There has been a lot of criticism that there are too many little white speckles appearing throughout the animated film, but they only appear now and again to the point you forget they are there at all, and a vast improvement over the inferior DVD release. The animated film looks decent throughout the animated film and was pleasantly surprised how good it looked compared to people who have been too critical about its image performance. But overall the Technicolor image quality is top notch, and is also adequately lively, particularly early on as bright oranges, reds, and blues contrast against the dreary big city blacks, blues, and greys. Image clarity holds up very firm and detailing is solid, generally and again I was quite surprised how well the image quality held up really well. Blu-ray Audio Quality – Universal Studios Home Entertainment only offers us a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio, but despite this, the presentation frequently takes advantage of all the channels at its disposal, especially with the soaring musical score by the brilliant James Horner. Again the audio presentation is top notch, which I found a pleasant experience. We also get a great deal of an ambient depth with all aspects of very easy sound experience, especially when all the animals speak. We also get a lot of sound enhancing with various scenes, especially when it comes to certain elements, whether it is the music, and the awesome action scenes. There is also a lot of brilliant fun when you get the whiplash sound effects across the stage as the film's titles appear on the screen at the start of the animated film. Another great audio effect is when the dialogue reverberation happen the "sales pitch" in the sewer early on in the animated film. Also another good audio experience was with the scene with the fireworks exploding. So all in all a good effort all round and you will not be disappointed. Blu-ray Special Features and Extras: This Blu-ray release of ‘AN AMERICAN TAIL: FIEVEL GOES WEST’ sadly contains no supplemental special features or extra contents. Finally, ‘AN AMERICAN TAIL: FIEVEL GOES WEST’ [1991] with a lot of sequels this particular Amblin Entertainment animated film sadly succumbs to the law of diminishing returns, which is such a shame. The story uses all the familiar ideas that one is used to in a western scenario, without breaking new ground. The final act also feels slightly rushed, where Wylie Burp agrees to help Feivel by training Feivel's feline friend Tiger for the final showdown, there's a short montage scene of the training and then it's straight into the showdown. There's surprisingly little action too, although there are plenty of comedic moments that will keep a younger audience entertained and I have heard through the grapevine, that it certainly captivates young children, as they always say and their assessment of this animated film, by saying, "I like cowboys and I like the funny talking dog." The only slight disappointment is that lack of special features or even the Theatrical Trailer, so a bit of a let down on the part of Universal Pictures, but despite this particular grip, I am pleased to add this Amblin Entertainment animated film sequel to my Blu-ray Collection and cannot understand why it has taken all this time to be released. Highly Recommended! Andrew C. Miller – Your Ultimate No.1 Film Aficionado Le Cinema Paradiso United Kingdom

Artikel beschädigt. Thank you for nothing

It seen I watch all An American Tail films (1 - 4) and Fievel's American Tails - 1992 in Chapter/Series order) Note: to see all Fievel's American Tails Complete Series (Cleaner Version) View it on YouTube "JJW199" (short static Picture and Sound interference may occur - since it never released on DVD for UK, USA) My favourite film will have to be An American Tail: Fievel Goes West (before Fievel's American Tails) lots fun, action, adventure, Comedy (mostly Tiger) also An American Tail is also my favourite film when the adventure really begin (this 1st film is perfect were it it only need to add is all the Language including Japanese with English Subtitle) and retro song including: "Somewhere Out" there and "Dreams of Dream Finale Version" (Very Emotional). From the first 2 film from 1986 to 1991 and cartoon series - 1992. Hopefully they remake it for Blu-Ray + DVD Combo. There were some problems about this the film plus something feel unfinished/incomplete for An American Tail: Fievel Goes West and that is the film should be longer than 75 minutes (around 90 or 100 minutes), the villains should have more air time plus (also with Fievel, Tiger and others) with addition footage/deleted senses plus prologue and epilogue for Fievel Goes West and also release all 13 episode of Fievel's American Tails (Special Feature/Addition on Blu-Ray + DVD Combo for UK & US with all the Language Voices including Japanese with English Subtitles (this also apply for An American Tail 1 - 4 HD Edition). they should call it An American Tail: Fievel Goes West HD Extended Edition "Uncut" with "Fievel's American Tails" complete series. (even it mean An American Tail: The Mystery of the Night Monster is the final movie or is it?) However it is better to watch all the of An American Tail in Series/Chapter Order like this: An American Tail Chapter 1 (1986) An American Tail Chapter 2: The Treasure Of Manhattan Island (1998) An American Tail Chapter 3: The Mystery of the Night Monster (1999 - 2000) An American Tail Chapter 4: Fievel Goes West (1991) An American Tail Chapter 4.5: Fievel's American Tails -Complete Series 1- (1992) Hopefully if they going to make: An American Tail 5: Fievel's Triumph An American Tail 6 "working title" Fievel's American Tails - Season 2- (design by TMS Entrainment) An American Tail 7 "TBC" An American Tail 8: The Final Chapter "TBC - Working Title" Fievel's American Tails -Season 3- "if still unfinished/incomplete" - Anime Style- (all set after An American Tail: Fievel Goes West and Fievel's American Tails). So I hope it possible to see the true final chapter/adventure for An American tail series/films - just 2, 3 or 4 more films before Fievel become a True Hero/Lawman/Regular Western Hero) if Steven Spielberg with others and original actors still exits/Universal Pictures/Universal Animation Studios or NBC Universal/(Universal Cartoon Studio)/CBS (Fievel's American Tails)/Dreamworks Animation SKG (Amblimation)/Amblin Entertainment approved it? (It must lots if Romance, Action, Adventure, Funny Moments (Comedy) and facing returning emeries from 1st, 2nd 3rd & 4th films) for an family and animated movie with mild violence. (even it may rated U/PG/PG-13 "12A/12") plus they should make Fievel's American Tails -Season 2 and Season 3- design by TMS Entertainment and remake Fievel's American Tails -Season 1- "if the series/chapter (the last 2,3 or 4 movies) is still unfinished/incomplete, all of them must be cartoon animated movie (like the good old day from 1986 - 1992 / 2000 not G.C.I animated movie (please yet everyone know your comment/feedback thanks) "so far I try to contact you/them by email or letter by post but so far no reply -.-" use this link: (An American Tail V: Fievel Triumph) not yet a movie, but still TBC until Universal Pictures and DreamWorks Animation approved it.) http://drock625.deviantart.com/gallery/40283074
