Bambi II [VHS]

Loved Bambi as a kid and I love part 2 just as much as part 1.

Exactly as described.

I love this midquel. It's as what a critic said. As good as the original. I've been trying to get it for many years and months but I just couldn't get it. Some of it makes me laugh. I even thought about one of the Caillou gets grounded videos and his family was joking him thinking he got coal and reindeer poop for Christmas. At the end when Bambi passed out, I was like "Come on, he made it through the rest of the first movie." About 30 minutes or so in the movie when Bambi thought he heard mother, I knew it was Man who is tricking him. While I was working, I kept making the sound he was making when he was fighting or attacking. The one where Thumper thinks it's a squirrel. Then I also thought about wildlife. I didn't know this was out on the big screen in most countries. I thought "No wonder why it's called Bambi in Africa. "In the past you couldn't rent it on Netflix but I think now you can. As a kid I thought this was a time warp from being an adult to being a kid again. Now I know it's a midquel. I've admired Sir Patrick Stewart for many months and years since Nausicaa. Then my admiration grew stronger and stronger when I've seen more than dubbing the English role of that movie. Probably more than a decade since then. (I can't believe he'll be 75 this year) [2015]. Then I also thought that skunks don't hibernate.

She loved it.

"Bambi" was simply one of Disney, and animation in general's, finest works. However the time gap between Bambi walking into the forest with his father and his adult years is still a mystery, and this film answers some of those questions. The animation is stunning, recreating the realistic caricature of deer and other forest animals, as well as the integrity of the original film. The backgrounds are beautiful as well as the score, and the story, while lighthearted like the original, also has times of significant emotional depth when needed. Any fan of the original Bambi and animation in general will appreciate this movie, and the attention to detail and care put into it by it's creators. Patrick Stewart as the Great Prince was a fantastic choice in addition the rest of the cast. I will treasure this movie for years to come as a classic that can be placed into the original Bambi during it's middle.

Brought this because I was hoping it would fit in well with the original to give my grandchildren more of a good thing. The video does not disappoint. The few inconsistencies such as the number of Thumper's sisters does not distract. The relationship between Bambi and the Old Prince of the Forest is uplifting as a father takes over the responsibility for his motherless child. Showing there is no immediate hesitation but second thoughts while the father thinks he is not really fit for this responsibility and then comes to realize it is not a responsibility he wants to give up. So it has a nice little morality tale embedded. The inconsistency that did get to me a bit, but would probably be missed by young children is the Prince's revelation he first met Bambi's mother when he was young. This doesn't fit the description Bambi's mother gives of deer respecting him due to his old age unless we conclude Bambi's mother was an old doe. Sweet and enjoyable story with cartooning that melds well with the original classic.

I ordered Bambi 1 and 2 to replace all my old DVDs that I've had for years and years I've always enjoyed watching Bambi brings back a lot of memories I had with my mother

Watch the film. It's wonderful - very close to old school real Disney style. I mean it is, but slightly modernized. But I'd say after such time, it's a very well done job. The voice actors are fabulous - all of them. My only disappointment was that 'bonus content' isn't listed, or itemized. They are placed in a linear fashion after the film, so you have to 'find' them or watch them in sequence. Dumb.

tout est bien

Fantastico film con una storia avvincente, ambientato durante il primo capitolo, che non può mancare in ogni collezione Disney! DVD arrivato puntuale, audio e video ottimi, consigliato per tutti gli appassionati.

I was trepidatious about seeing this as the original 1942 film has always been a favourite of mine, but I was reassured by watching the 'making of' documentary on the original Bambi DVD where they explained how carefully they tried to be faithful to the original. I was wowed by how well they succeeded - it's almost like a sequence of the original that never made it into the theatrical version! The story is sharp and dynamic, and the animation continues in the original style instead of the usual CGI substitution in modern animations (some of which like Frozen are excellent but I always missed the original Disney style). This one continues the magical 'painterly' backgrounds and characters by clever use of digital technology to provide continuity and extension. The acting is brilliant from Patrick Stewart's magnificent Prince of the Forest to the very talented child actors voicing the favourite characters of Bambi, Thumper and Flower (and the rest). The new sequences are a delightful bonus, and I was impressed by the integrity of the artists in providing us with the 'middle story' starting from Bambi's mother's death to the 'Twitterpated' spring scene. It's an example on how to do 'prequels and sequels' but this is a 'midquel'! I will be watching the two in tandem next time, switching between the DVDs to create one extended film! If you love the original Disney style and have a childlike heart whatever age you are, you will be very happy with this film.

C'est l'histoire d'un faon mais aussi celle de l'amour maternel ou paternel, la perte et le chagrin, l'amitié, le besoin l'émancipation, être en harmonie avec la Nature surtout pour un animal. C'est un film qui recouvre plus de sujet à lui seul que n'importe quelle épopée. Bambi a aussi sûrement touché le plus mauvais des chasseurs et d'enfants.J'ai suis emballé par ce dessin animé, un des meilleurs films de W. Disney, dont le DVD est une excellente nouvelle pour tous la nostalgique des tout petits et des grands bien sûr.

My 4yr old daughter loves this film. It was bought as a addition to her disney stock and became an instant success. The part with the skunk and the dogs is always a moment of laughter.Reccomended for all happy little girls.
